ok paul i had another look at the driver playback/capture tutorials. I have one question.Do applicationsinitialize and use a pcm_handle of the alsa driver when they begin interaction with it?Surely not I thought that the driver would work totally independently of my VoIP and this is why I

Hi , i'm trying to change the fragment size that the alsa driver is capturing/playing out. It's currently set at 32 msecs(256 bytes). They are set in the runtime structure... runtime-period_max ...etc Could anybody tell me which file these parameters are set in the alsa-driver directory?

to driver sending buffer every 32 msecs.However this does not match for GSM because it needs only 132 bytes every 64/96 msecs. Can the driver change the amount of data it gets from the soundcard to suit the codec? Help appreciated,Brian.James Courtier-Dutton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Brian Furey wrote

Hi All, with the ALSA driver, what do the OSS substream mean?If you have a 2 main capture channels, how many substream would you have? Also the capture stream is supposed to operate at 8000 Hz per second.Is it possible that it is actually say 8192, a value to the power-of-two? How can I find

Hi All, i'm using an open source VoIP application with the alsa driver. My card is the onboard intel8x0. My problem is figuring out the patterns I am getting with the alsa driver when transmitting packets. For instance when I use the GSM codec with a packets size of 80 msecs and 132 bytes,
