SRND

SRND is a Linux device driver for the miroMEDIA Surround Dolby Pro Logic decoder.

[Specifications] The miroMEDIA Surround decoder is an ISA PnP board which enhances the audio capabilities of already existing audio components. It allows to connect a complete Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound system with five speakers. Furthermore the board provides Surround sound with only two speakers connected through the JVC 3D-Phonic® technology.

SRND provides a software interface for Linux. The special file /dev/srnd is created that corresponds with a kernel module. Through this interface an application can control the miroMEDIA Surround board.
