snd_pcm_capture_prepare()

Signal the driver to ready the capture channel

#include <sys/asoundlib.h>

int snd_pcm_capture_prepare( snd_pcm_t *handle);

Arguments:

handle

The handle for the PCM device, which you must have opened by calling snd_pcm_open() or snd_pcm_open_preferred() .

Library:

libasound.so

Use the -l asound option to qcc to link against this library.

Description:

The snd_pcm_capture_prepare() function prepares hardware to operate in a specified transfer direction. This call is responsible for all parts of the hardware's startup sequence that require additional initialization time, allowing the final GO (usually from writes into the buffers) to execute more quickly.

You can call this function in all states except SND_PCM_STATUS_NOTREADY (returns -EBADFD) and SND_PCM_STATUS_RUNNING state (returns -EBUSY). If the operation is successful (zero is returned), the driver state is changed to SND_PCM_STATUS_PREPARED.

Returns:

Zero on success, or a negative error code.

Errors:

-EINVAL

Invalid handle.

-EBUSY

Channel is running.

Classification:

QNX Neutrino
