Hi, I’m developing an application using QNX4.25 & Photon1.13, I want to
add an audio card, but all the drivers supported by qnx are Beta
release, can anyone advise me about which hardware & drivers to use?

Thank you.

If you don’t want to use the ALSA stuff, then your only choice is to
find a SoundBlaster Compatible card (this exclude SBLive)

Are you saying ALSA is available for QNX4.25, Mario?

There is a version of ALSA available for QNX4.25. It is
not the latest version that is being worked on for RTP.

find a SoundBlaster Compatible card (this exclude SBLive)

Note that Audio supports slightly more than just SoundBlaster.
I’ve never found a SoundBlaster compatible that supported
SoundBlaster’s 16 bit sound, however clones will also support
MSS (WSS), with 16 bit.

There is ALSA 2 source available for QNX 4.25 on QNX’s FTP site. The
number of available cards is limited, but for those cards that it
supports, it works. There is ALSA 5 support (source code by FTP) for
Neutrino, though I haven’t looked to see if it has been back-ported to
QNX4.

Yes Alsa .2 has been available for a while on quics (/usr/free/…)

It hasn’t been back-ported and it’s not trivial to do so.
