Before asking questions, I'll wait for your userland lib and see what it does. I've seen some longer frames as well occasionally when starting to play with spectral, but didn't care too much as I didn't know how to handle it. Anyway, I prefer hiding the corrupt and messy part and only pass "clean data" to userspace, at least with the Linux implementation. If you have some code handling and/or correct these long dataframes, I'd be happy to integrate it if possible. Thanks! Simon
