NAME
     cmpci — C-Media CMI8x38 audio device driver

SYNOPSIS
     cmpci* at pci? dev ? function ?
     audio* at audiobus?
     mpu*   at cmpci?
     opl*   at cmpci? flags 1

DESCRIPTION
     The cmpci device driver supports C-Media CMI8x38 based sound cards.

     The device has SPDIF input/output interfaces, 16bit CODEC with analog
     mixer, OPL3 FM Synthesizer, and MPU401 compatible MIDI I/O port inter‐
     face.

MIXER DEVICE
     The mixer device of cmpci driver can be accessed via mixerctl(1) command.
     The complex structure is analyzed as follows.

     Note the 2nd SPDIF input exists only on CMI8738/PCI-6ch versions.

MIXER EXAMPLES
     Here are examples about wave playback and SPDIF input/output ports.

     Playback to speaker, SPDIF input to SPDIF output
	      mixerctl -w playback.mode=dac spdif.output=spdin
	      spdif.monitor=off

     Playback to SPDIF output, SPDIF input to speaker
	      mixerctl -w playback.mode=spdif spdif.output=playback
	      spdif.output.playback=wave spdif.monitor=spdin

     SPDIF input to both SPDIF output and speaker
	      mixerctl -w spdif.output=spdin spdif.monitor=spdin

     Playback to both SPDIF output and speaker
	      mixerctl -w playback.mode=spdif spdif.output=playback
	      spdif.output.playback=wave spdif.monitor=spdout

     Mix playback and SPDIF input to speaker
	      mixerctl -w playback.mode=dac spdif.monitor=spdin

HISTORY
     The cmpci device driver appeared in NetBSD 1.5.

BUGS
     4ch/6ch playback is not yet available.  Joystick port is not supported.

     spdif.output.playback=legacy does not seem to work properly.
