Hi all I am puzzled... I do:
chrt -f -p 50 `pidof "IRQ 5"` chrt -f 40 arecord -t wav -f cd -d 600 test.wav and if there's accidentally an updatedb running in the background, I get lots of "Overrun!!! (at least xxxms long)", where xxx can be hundreds of milliseconds. Software: Debian Sarge (somewhat) arecord: version 1.0.8 by Jaroslav Kysela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (alsa-utils Version: 1.0.8-4) libasound.so.2.0.0 (libasound2 Version: 1.0.8-3) Hardware: CPU: Duron 900MHz ASUS A7VI-VM mobo via VT82C686 onboard sound Do I really need to use jackd? It cannot be THAT hard to record 16bit * 44100 Hz ~ 100kByte/sec... I am iin no way a multimedia expert, so, I am probably missing something? Yes, I could also make the sound IRQ non-threaded... There are lots of things to try... But I'd prefer just to have 1 sure method that works. Or at least to know why it cannot (reliably) work. Is arecord a bad choice? I know it has some parameters to control buffers, intervals, but it wasn't obvious to me which one(s) can be critical for the task.
