The audio support on the HDMI firmware uses some of the same pins as SPI 1. What is the preferred way of disabling the audio support for the HDMI in this case? Should the firmware be disabled on kernel command line and a special no-audio HDMI firmware be enabled (on kernel commandline) instead?

Sorry, @Jason_Kridner you too!

We’ve been talking about making the audio portion a seperate resource/cape so you can disable it and still have picture on the screen. Patches welcome.

Ok, Koen, I’ll see what I can do.

I already had a pull request pending for the ADC fix, but I have updated it to also include the HDMI audio/video split. great if someone with an HDMI TV with audio can test before and after!
