Jan I think what I can gather from the example that this should be enough to get things done. I'm just not clear on what the "rtmac_waitinfo" structure returns, what does the three return variables do nl. cycle_no, cycle_start, clock_offset? From what reference point are these values calculated? I assume it might be from the start of each frame, but I'm not sure.
