Description:

The snd_pcm_info_t structure describes the capabilities of a PCM device. The members include:

type

Sound card type. Deprecated. Do not use.

flags

Any combination of:

• SND_PCM_INFO_PLAYBACK — the playback channel is present.
• SND_PCM_INFO_CAPTURE — the capture channel is present.
• SND_PCM_INFO_DUPLEX — the hardware is capable of duplex operation.
• SND_PCM_INFO_DUPLEX_RATE — the playback and capture rates must be same for the duplex operation.
• SND_PCM_INFO_DUPLEX_MONO — the playback and capture must be monophonic for the duplex operation.
• SND_PCM_INFO_SHARED — some or all of the hardware channels are shared using software PCM mixing.
