Hi Chris, The way to avoid this is to run PD with the -rt flag so it runs in realtime. If you are still getting the xruns then you can try increasing PD's priority using: chrt -f -p 50 `pidof "pd"` 50 is the priority that works for me, but you might have to experiment with different numbers. I hope this information helps (I'm using Ubuntu Edgy too). Hector On 12/17/06, chris beagles <christhemonkey@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Evening list, Today i tryed playing around with pd for the first time, and enabled the audio system to use jack, which works fine except for: If I move the mouse and it crosses the boundary between two windows, I then get reports of Xruns from within pd in the main window and the sound crackles accordingly. Qjackctl does not report any of these xruns. This is getting a little annoying and may leave me having to leave pd for now as i need to utilise my mouse whilst using it. I am running Ubuntu Edgy with a 2.6.17-rt kernel and jack as realtime. If I do not enable the audio system within pd then this problem does not occur. Any help much appreciated. Chris
