Re: FreeBSD pcm(4) latency (From write() to audible output)

2004-08-13 Thread Peter Wood
Heya Dan, I've found that there is about a 800ms delay between the output data being written to /dev/dsp and being able to hear the output from the soundcard on FreeBSD. I'm working to a 200ms deadline. What's your write size? At 44100khz*2 channels, a 65k write would take around 800 ms to play.
