i have modified my routing plugin because i wanted to get "Line In" to my 4ch setup. normally line in is only heard on front speakers. here is my mod:

.......
acc3 RO_dfront_r , RO_front_r , 0x0, 0x0;
acc3 RO_rear_l , WaveL , 0x0, AC3SurLeft ;
acc3 RO_rear_l , Fx1InSL , RO_rear_l , Fx2InSL ;
macs RO_rear_l , RO_rear_l , RSynthL , 0x40000000;
acc3 RO_rear_l , 0x0 , 0x0, In0 ; patch: In0(LineInL) => Rear_L
acc3 RO_rear_r , WaveR , 0x0, AC3SurRight ;
acc3 RO_rear_r , Fx1InSR , RO_rear_r , Fx2InSR ;
macs RO_rear_r , RO_rear_r , RSynthR , 0x40000000;
acc3 RO_rear_r , 0x0 , 0x0, In1 ; patch: In1(LineInR) => Rear_R
macs RO_phones_l , 0x0, RO_front_l , 0x40000000;
macs RO_phones_l , RO_phones_l , RO_rear_l , 0x40000000;
macs RO_phones_r , 0x0, RO_front_r , 0x40000000;
......

added lines are commented with "patch"
please tell me:
1. what you think.
2. do somebody have any other(better) mods/solution for this purpose (line in->front+rear)
3. maybe my mod is incorrect or there is easier way to do this?!

regards,

>acc3 RO_rear_r , 0x0 , 0x0, In1 ; patch: In1(LineInR) => Rear_R

i'm not sure this patch does exaclty what you want... such code let you to hear only Line_in with Rear and nothing more... (and that can be done just by connecting prolog 0/1 directly to epilog.rear without "routing" module at all)

Btw. why hearing the same mono/stereo signal with four speakers is so important for you? (e.g. what this cloning is for?)

my setup is:
ct4830 (w/ 5.1 output)
front out -> headphones* or speakers(smaller)
rear out** -> car amplifier kenwood*** -> speakers (big)
tvtuner/radio**** -> line in

---
* used at night when the people sleep
** as a know rear out has better quality output, so its used here for the car amplifier to get better sound.
*** on/off switchable. only 1 stereo input.
**** good for cloning to rear because its stereo

when i power on my car amp. to have my "TV sound out" on the rear speakers.

i want to mix In0/In1(Line in) with the other rear output (rear_l+r). eg. still have ac3? not just cutting RO_rear_*
stereo(line in) -> 5.1 or 4ch speakers.
i think this is useful for everybody with more than 2 speaker setup and tvtuner who wants to listen his tv to all speakers even without surround.

I see. So if you want "the real rear signal" (e.g. from ac3 etc.) to be preserved do "acc3 RO_rear_r , RO_rear_r, 0x0, In1"

If you want rear to play just the same stuff as front does connect outputs of eq to prolog.rear

---
and don't forget: "who wants to listen his tv to all speakers even without surround" - stereo sound comming from four speakers is muffled and you get phase and spectral distortions...
like.. hmm... reading same text from four differrent monitors at a moment

what is the difference between:
"acc3 RO_rear_r , RO_rear_r, 0x0, In1"
and
"acc3 RO_rear_r , 0x0, 0x0, In1"?

please explain.

eq?
prolog.rear?

normally i have output for the rear.
this output is some inputs mixed together. i want to add "line in" to this mixing(for the rear speakers. for the front its added already). so if i listen to winamp(stereo) + bsplayer(ac3) + dscaler(tv/stereo) to hear them simultaneously at front and rear.

reading same text from 2 monitors.
then this should be true for winamp(for example) too?! for me its like having 6-way speaker - not 3 way. because all the speakers are a front of me.. not at the every corner of the room and the front and rear speakers are different size.

acc3 ro_rear_r, ro_rear_r, 0x0, in1
means:
ro_rear_r=ro_rear_r+0+in1

acc3 ro_rear_r,0,0,in1
means:
ro_rear_r=0+0+in1
