Has anyone had good/bad experience with PortMidi (or Midi in general) under Vista? We've been doing some testing with a Midisport 2x2, and when we open both MIDI input and output (we're testing with the pm_test/latency program), bad things happen when PortMidi calls midiInClose(): the call does not return and the console just hangs for a few minutes. Under the debugger, we see reports of some threads and the application exiting, so evidently some fatal error is happening in midiInClose() but is not reported back to the application.
I thought this might be related to buffer management (you have to post buffers to the device to get input, and these have to be returned carefully for an orderly shutdown). We added some counters and it does appear that buffers are being returned properly to the callback and we properly free them. There are other things we could look at, but suggestions are welcome. Has anyone tried this with other devices/drivers? -Roger _______________________________________________ media_api mailing list media_api@create.ucsb.edu http://lists.create.ucsb.edu/mailman/listinfo/media_api
