Will look at the crackle - but want to say - setting the stream and output buffer smaller than default is not recommended, you end up wanting to priorise the other threads because you are doing this. I'd really recommend not setting these smaller (though I can see a reason for allowing them to be bigger) than default. I stand by the reasoning that we only need to priorise the output threads as done on Touch precisely because we have a big buffer between the threads and a big stream buffer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
