The following sections define the various devices for the player. Unless you
really know what to do you should not change the following options. As most
entries are similar only some educational examples are listed here. For a
complete reference have a look at your personal cp.ini file for
details.
The general form of a device looks like:
[handle]
link=...
subtype=...
port=...
port2=...
irq=...
irq2=...
dma=...
dma2=...
bypass=...
keep=...
- handle
- The internal name to use within the player. The cp.ini
file must contain all handles listed in the devices options of the
devices section.
- link
- the name of the dll function this device will be linked to.
- port(2)
- the primary/secondary port of the sound card. This value has to
be given in hexadecimal with preceeding 0x or appending h!
- irq(2)
- the primary/secondary IRQ of the sound card
- dma(2)
- the primary/secondary DMA channel of the card
- bypass
- skip the autodetection if it may encounter problems
- keep
- keep the driver resident in memory, even it is nor currently needed.
This will save some time by needing some more memory.
Most device functions of the standard dll contain autodetection routines for
the supported sound cards, so there is normally no need to specify any of the
port, irq or dma options. However if OPENCP is not able to detect your sound
cards settings you can try to insert the appropriate values in the configuration
file.
The next paragraphs will look at the special features the different sound
cards and drivers support. The original order of the cp.ini has been
slightly modified for the purpose of documentation.
