Hi, Since I moved from linux-2.6.2 to linux-2.6.3-rc2, and then 2.6.3, I am experiencing a strange problem with all the GStreamer applications: as soon as GStreamer tries to play out a sound, the system gets extremely

[Alsa-devel] start_threshold having no effect

2003-10-20 Thread Johan Bilien
Hi, I am trying to build an application using ALSA, and which requires low playback delays. My first idea was to have a small hardware buffer to limit the playout delays. But then if for some reason the buffer gets full, the card stops, and the next writei will block for about one second. My sec
