SYNOPSIS
mavb0 at macebus0
audio* at mavb?
DESCRIPTION
The mavb driver provides support for the
Moosehead A/V Board found on SGI O2 machines.
The Moosehead A/V Board uses an AD1843 codec that supports 8- and
16-bit audio sample recording and playback at rates from 5 to 54 kHz, with 1
Hz resolution. The mavb driver also makes it
possible to control the playback volume by using the buttons on the front of
the O2.
SEE ALSO
HISTORY
The mavb driver first appeared in
OpenBSD 3.7.
AUTHORS
The mavb driver was written by Mark
Kettenis.
CAVEATS
The analog mixer in the AD1843 codec does not provide a master volume control. Therefore, the O2 volume buttons only control the output volume of the DAC.
BUGS
Currently only sample rates up to 48 kHz are supported. The second DAC on the AD1843 codec sits idle.
