The results with CVS jackd and (very recent alsa 1.0.7) on a 2.6.8.1 kernel with volluntary-preempt are... the same as a year ago. alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 256 -g 8 alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 256 -g 4 alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 128 -g 8 alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 128 -g 4 alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 64 -g 8 alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 64 -g 4 -all produce clean sound alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 64 -g 2 - noise AND running -> alsaplayer -o jack jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 - regular pops and crackle (plus an "aliasing" sound) jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -r 48000 - regular pops and crackle (plus an "aliasing" sound) jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -r 48000 -n 3 - clean (plus an "aliasing" sound) jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -r 48000 -P - clean (plus an "aliasing" sound) jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -r 48000 -P -p ( < 1024) -n 3 - regular pops and crackle (plus an "aliasing" sound) jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -r 44100 - regular pops and crackle jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -r 44100 -P - clean jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -p 512 -n 4 -r 44100 - clean jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -p 512 -n 2 -r 44100 - regular pops and crackle jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -P -p 512 -n 2 -r 44100 - regular pops and crackle (somewhat less) I'm guessing that -> alsaplayer -r -d hw:1 -f 64 -g 4 is analogous to -> jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:1 -p 64 -n 4 -P So... why can alsa do this low lat playback but not jackd? Wierd. This leads me to think that this may be a jackd problem more than a USB/alsa problem, which bodes well for those praying for FireWire support. -ry -- Ryan Gallagher <ruinaudio@xxxxxxxxxxx>
