hi folkx- developing my looping application, i noticed a couple of things:
1) adding a thread to a jack application while it is active causes a big (~15ms) xrun. 2) pressing numlock, capslock, or scrollock causes a big (~9ms) xrun. this is running 2.4.18-pre6 with LL patch and alsa 0.9.0beta10, jack cvs as of about a month ago. btw paul, using the cvs jack instead of the old 0.4.7 that was on the jack page fixed the problems i was having with my ac97 crashing at low buffersizes... besides the above cases, i still get the occasional xrun (always short, within 1-2 samples of the fragment size). but nothing totally poops the system out. i suspect these shorty xruns are coming from the poopy ac97. i solved the problem with threads by changing my design so that i create all threads before i start processing. its not that big a deal, its just that my memory allocation manager which handles preallocating blocks for recording needed to be shuffled around. as for the numlock thing, totally weird. i wonder if its a RH7.1 console thing... anyway, as it is, im psyched to have lowlatency fullduplex audio FX on my $300 computer with a consumer sound card. best, yon __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
