[linux-audio-user] clicks with video activity

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I'm getting clicks in the audio using jack when there is video activity
(i.e. audio software that displays meters like Rezound, when muse
refreshes the display at playing and following the cursor, when
minimizing and maximizing windows, etc). If I increase the latency they
seem to stop. What could be causing this? Here there are some details of
my system:

Asus P4P800Deluxe
Pentium 4HT 2.8 ghz
1 gig ram
M-Audio Audiophile
Agnula Linux with kernel 2.6.12 (with preemption)

This is my cat /proc/interrupts

hector@demudi:~$ cat /proc/interrupts

NMI: 0
LOC: 3167251

MIS: 0

I have jack set to 128 frames, 2 periods and 44100 sample rate.
The video card is a Radeon 7000.

As you can see my audio card is in the last IRQ (225: 1696593
IO-APIC-level ICE1712 0/96593) so I was wondering if this is the
cause. I tried to set a higher priority using chrt -f -p 99 `pidof "IRQ
225"` but it didn't fix anything.
I remember having the same problem long time ago in windows when I had
an Intel motherboard and I was using the built-in video card. The
problem disappeared when I installed a new AGP card.

Thank you!


Hector
