I'm working on a software synth, my first project with ALSA. Everything is going fine, save for the initialization of the PCM output: based on the scraps of documentation I've found, I have not been able to figure out what exactly a "period" is, what its size signifies and how the concept relates to or overlaps with that of output buffering.
For an example, suppose I'm producing 44100 hz 16-bit mono signal and want a 256-frame (512 bytes) output buffer. How do I use the period-related hw functions in this case? 555 ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
