As a matter of fact I am, but in this case I am not measuring latency. What happens is that the sound thru of the alsa-lib/test/latency sounds bad. I want to know where this happens, so I write the input to disk right after snd_pcm_readi. With a big fragment size. And obviously, the problem existed before I started writing to disk; if not, I would not have written to disk :-) Maarten _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
