IIRC, mmap with OSS doesn't work unless you use the LD_PRELOAD hack. this loads a library that intercepts all standard system calls and routes them through alsa-lib. your app will not run without this. why? mmap provides direct access to the DMA buffer of the hardware, and thus bypasses most of what alsa-lib does. ALSA does support such direct access, but not in the simplistic way that OSS provides. or can I do something with "Scatter Gather" in ALSA API, >or does it help if i work myself into JACK for this problem? >hints welcome, tnx!!! either use ALSA natively, or use JACK, or use the LD_PRELOAD hack. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
