Hi, I am in the process of migrating a source of a streaming station from winXP to linux.
This machine records from a soundcard and with ices2 and realproducer (well the use of this program is not my decision, but I convinced it to use alsa via alsa-oss wrapper) and sends streams to a central server where other listeners can connect. Well, I tought that recording from the soundcard with multiple instances is a piece of cake. But I did not succeeded. I get: [2006-05-26 16:28:21] EROR input-alsa/alsa_open_module Failed to open audio device hw:0,0: Device or resource busy If another (alsa) application is recording at the same time. About the machine: It was Debian sarge at the begining but I upgraded to etch to get alsa version 1.0.11-2 because this page http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin said I do not need any trick to get dmix working "for 1.0.9rc2 and higher" which is the thing I think I need.

So thanks in advance. Any help is appreciated! -- "Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
