How to report audio pin for stream class driver?
Posted by Jackal Huang on December 20th, 2004


Dears,

stream class also supports external sound device in addition to video
capture device.
I would develop usb audio driver based on stream class.
I cannot find the information about how to report audio pin for stream
class.
Does anyone know to report audio pin for stream class?

Best Regards

You really, really don't want to do that. USBAUDIO.SYS has 8 years of
development and heavy use behind it, and it STILL isn't perfect.

You should make your hardware compliant with the audio class and let
USBAUDIO.SYS handle it.

I also very want to use usbaudio.sys.
However, it doesn't support usb 2.0 device.
After ask for microsoft, the answer is....
"even LongHorn may not support usb 2.0 audio device"
I cannot wait for Microsoft's usb 2.0 audio driver.

Of course not. What's the point? There is no conceivable audio stream
that cannot be handled with 10 megabits per second. Given that, it is
nothing but a waste of resources to make a USB 2.0 audio device.

Yes, you are right.
usb 1.1 bandwidth is enough for audio,
but video stream can take advantage of usb 2.0 high bandwidth transfer
our device is a multi-interface usb 2.0 device.
It contains video interface and audio interface.
audio interface will be regard as usb 2.0 audio device
