No, I haven't tried real OSS. I'm fairly new to Linux audio and have never used anything other than Alsa in all it's glory. I don't know how OSS would be installed under Gentoo. I don't see any ebuilds for it. I presume it will work if I build it from source by hand, but that does sound like a lot of work. In my current case the pops only happen with OSS emulation under Alsa. All files that create pops using OSS emulation work perfectly if I use any native Alsa app to play them, so I really don't think it's the source material itself. I wish I didn't have to use OSS at all. Has anyone accomplished getting all types of web-based multi-media to work just using Alsa? Any mime.type files to lead the way? - Mark ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
