[Aggarwal, Anuj] I am still surprised how this could be a NFS writeout issue as we are seeing a consistent read/write rate of 2Mbps over tftp. When dd command is used for read/write to further check NFS performance, 2Mbps for write and 4Mbps for read is observed. Does that still mean nfs is the culprit? What could be tweaked in audio/network driver to avoid this problem, any suggestions? > > arecord is a pretty basic program and doesn't try terribly hard to > recover from errors. [Aggarwal, Anuj] Any other utility to try capture which does error recovering too? _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
