Channels[edit]

Channel 2 (Audio)[edit]

Channel 2 returns the DSP DRAM addresses of structures located in the DSP Memory Region. DSP:ConvertProcessAddressFromDspDram can be used to convert these addresses into virtual memory addresses. The list of addresses and the length of the list vary depending on DSP firmware version.

Channel 3 (Binary)[edit]

The purpose of channel 3 is unknown. The behaviour of this pipe varies depending on DSP firmware version. Observed behaviours include:

  • doing nothing.
  • echoing what is returned to it.
  • long strings of zeros.
