snd_pcm_set_chmap()

Set the current channel mapping for a PCM stream

Synopsis:

#include <sys/asoundlib.h>

int snd_pcm_set_chmap( snd_pcm_t *pcm,
                       const snd_pcm_chmap_t *map );

Arguments:

pcm: The handle for the PCM device, which you must have opened by calling snd_pcm_open_name(), snd_pcm_open(), or snd_pcm_open_preferred().
chmap: A pointer to a snd_pcm_chmap_t structure that specifies the new mapping.

Library:

libasound.so

Description:

(QNX Software Development Platform 6.6 io-audio patch [patch ID 4510] or later) The snd_pcm_set_chmap() function sets the current channel mapping for a PCM stream. It's supported only if the hardware is capable of being mapped.

Returns:

0 on success, or a negative errno value if an error occurred.

Errors:

EINVAL

One of the following:

The value of pcm or chmap is NULL.
The encoded number of voices is the mapping was greater than the maximum voices that the device supports.

ENOMEM

Not enough memory was available.

ENOTSUP

The device supports only one fixed mapping.

Cancellation point	No
Interrupt handler	No
Signal handler	Yes
Thread	Read the Caveats

Caveats:

This function isn't thread-safe if pcm (snd_pcm_t) is used across multiple threads.
