Hi Andy,
I experimented with the audio register settings on CX25840. I could
not seem to program the WM8739 though, there is no response with
$ sudo ./v4l2-dbg -c wm8739 -s 0x1a 0x80
And since wm8739 does not support register readback, I was not able to
verify the register settings.
Anyway, on the CX25840, increasing the volume and equalizers helped to
improve the SNR. I wish the this can be done on the WM8739 instead in
front of the ADC, so that the line level input signal (usually 320mV)
gets gained up to ADC input range of 1Vrms. Also note that there are
attenuating resistors in the signal path at input of WM8739, so the
gain may need to compensate for this too. Let me know if I am
mistaken.
Regards
Ravi
