According to wine weekly news (lhttp://www.winehq.com/?issue=301) the wine project is asking for feedback on its handling of audio. If I can quote: /Alexandre mentioned there were some new changes for better audio driver management in winecfg. That work has been done by Robert Reif and this week he asked if anyone could give him some feedback regarding the lesser used (and more broken) audio drivers:/ /Is anyone using the arts, esound or jack sound drivers for non trivial use? By non trivial, I mean more than one application or more than a single device. If so, I am interested in getting information on the software you are using and how it is using the drivers. / /Would redesigning these drivers to show up as a single device per physical device which allowed being opened more than once be a problem?/ I am sure there are people on this list who know what they are talking about ( & I exclude myself from that!) who could really speak up for the requirements for serious audio work & wine. cheers Guy -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
