The startup function is the right place. But instead of modifying the DAI use snd_pcm_hw_constraint_mask64(), snd_pcm_hw_constraint_list(), etc. to setup the additional constraints that come from the EDID. Bonus points for making this a generic helper function that takes a runtime and a EDID and then applies the EDID constraints on the runtime. - Lars
