IMX6q SPDIF Tx driver

[johnturnur]

Hi

In our custom board audio is routed through SPDIF interface.

I am getting some signals on SPDIF port but no audio is heard.

Any suggestions? 

SPDIF Register values are as

STCSCH: 0x304000

STCSCL: 0x000000

SCR: 0x00030417

SIE: 0x00040000

STC: 0x00000196

Hi John,

SPDIF is a data stream, if you are playing and audio file on IMX6 and the sink (output) is SPDIF, you need a device that will receive SPDIF and converted it to an audible format.

We use devices similar to Transit M-Audio to generate a SPDIF stream and capture (record) in iMX6 into SPDIF Rx; in your case connect the SPDIF Tx line to an audio receiver (probably you will need a coxial to optical converter).

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I have connected converter at output side.

So it should work, This setup is working with other SPDIF source.

Hi John,

Unfortunately non of Freescale iMX6 boards has an SPDIF TX;

In some iMX6 boards HDMI uses SPDIF TX for handling audio, so interface is known to work.

I will suggest to try latest release as we don't typically provide support for previous releases.

Latest release L3.0.5_4.0.0_130424
