|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command displays or sets various audio system driver variables.
|
|
If a list of variables is present on the command line, then
|
|
.Nm
|
|
prints the current value of those variables for the specified device.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
flag is specified, all variables for the device are printed.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl w
|
|
flag is specified
|
|
.Nm
|
|
attempts to set the specified variables to the given values.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl f
|
|
flag can be used to give an alternative audio control device, the default is
|
|
.Pa /dev/audioctl0 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
flag suppresses printing of the variable name.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
To set the playing sampling rate to 11025, you can use
|
|
.Dl audioctl -w play.sample_rate=11025
|
|
To set all of the play parameters for CD-quality audio, you can use
|
|
.Dl audioctl -w play=44100,2,16,slinear_le
|
|
Note that many of the variables that can be inspected and changed
|
|
with
|
|
.Nm
|
|
are reset when
|
|
.Pa /dev/audio0
|
|
is opened. This can be circumvented by using
|
|
.Pa /dev/sound0
|
|
instead.
