When was the last time you looked? I'm not aware of anything that can block the whole of jack. Indeed, I've run a fairly complex 12 part tune at 48k and only 16 frames/period on a poorly optimised dual core machine, deliberately getting it to produce the occasional Xrun to see how it recovered. It typically produces 2 inaudible ones during the 5 minute track. As far as I'm aware nothing was being blocked. It simply ran out of time under these (frankly insane) conditions. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
