An audio signal from an external source is fed into the line-in connector of my sound"card" (its on the mobo integrated...AC97 VIA Chipset/ Asus AV8 mobo). The pure playback of the external signal is fine without distortion, but if I set the channel to "input" with: amixer set Master,0 100%,100% unmute amixer set Line,0 100%,100% mute captur amixer set Capture,0 75%,75% mute captur (I tried different volume settings already...) the playback of the captured sound file sounds, if I would use a loudspeaker made from broken tin...AWFUL. Any idea, what is going wrong here ??? Thank you very much in advance for any help! Have a nice weekend! mcc -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
