In other words, after the SOF, the USB stream will start with the first byte of the first channel. One USB packet must also transport multiple full audio frames (ie, samples for all channels), and not only fractions thereof. > The output to the I2S is done in bigger chunks through the DMA engine of the > AT91SAM7 - it might be possible that I loose one packet in some case at this > place... This would actually cause a inversion on the channels... If you lose one entire packet and catch up with the next one, there shouldn't be any channel inversion, just a data dropout. However I would add an extra check to assure your internal counters are in sync whenever a SOF is received.
