VLC still chokes on mp3 payback tho. VLC has specific settings for alsa and oss audio but I haven't found and preference to choose between the two. Another wierd thing is that /dev/dsp is locked. I can't write to it. Is this normal if aRTs is done. Are the OSS devices 'emulated' and actually have ALSA implementation or are they totally different thing ? _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
