Hello again... Have to bother the group one more (and hopefully one last) time.
The machine in question is a generic PC with an Intel board, 2.8GHz Pentium 4, 1GB RAM, running SuSE 11.1. It has a Delta 1010LT installed and configured for ALSA only (no JACK); the onboard audio is disabled. It has two identical SATA drives connected to the motherboard, which are mirrored by a software RAID. /var/snd is stored locally; the system is set for 44.1kHz in rdadmin. Having resolved my earlier problems, I left the machine to import some audio this afternoon, then came back and compiled/installed 2.1.1 (had been running 2.1.0; wanted to make sure I didn't experience any of the bugs that got fixed today). The audio was all 44.1kHz WAVs, and imported without a hitch. But when I fired up rdairplay and started playing my new carts, I noticed that there was a slight but noticeable "stutter" to the audio. Opening an xterm and looking at the output of 'top', everything seemed normal - plenty of RAM free, CPU usage stayed well under 10%, etc. The machine is a dedicated Rivendell test box, so there's no noteworthy unrelated services to blame it on. I've never encountered this problem before - but then, I've never spent much time using 2.x or M-Audio cards, either. Anyone know how I might go about troubleshooting it? Trying to resist the temptation to go back to 1.x, the tried and true... --------------- Keith Thelen Kanabec Systems _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
