Its very unlikely you need to touch any of the parameters - they are for expert users... However if you get dropouts, then the first thing to do is try a larger alsa buffer, so try "-a 80". You can also try running a root with sudo as the other priority mechanisms only work when the process has access to real time priorities. You should not need to change anything else, but if you do suggest reading through from the start of this thread. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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
