the default ALSA behaviour is to stop the PCM stream if an xrun occurs. with --sched, SCHED_FIFO more or less guarantees that an xrun cannot occur. to change this, use snd_pcm_sw_params_set_stop_threshold() and set it to a value like ~0U (or some other very large number). this tells ALSA that unless the size of xrun exceeds this value, the stream should keep running. --p _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://www.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/csound-unix-dev
