>Sorry I am new to ALSA so forgive me if this is obvious. don't be sorry about that. instead, be sorry for this: whether you know it or not, the email program you are using is sending out copies of your mail in both plain text and HTML formats. increasingly on the net, there are filters being put in place that silently dump HTML-formatted email. some mailing lists will not ever accept such posts. as long as you do this, you are (1) wasting network bandwidth by sending messages that are typically more than twice as long as they could be (2) making it harder for people using traditional email readers to read them (3) risking the chance that people will never see your mail because its filtered before reaching their email inbox.

I thought I read that it = >could but have only found samples for playing a single PCM stream. Any = >pointers gratefully appreciated. Your question isn't very well defined. There are several things you might be thinking of: 1) a single process playing multiple audio files to a single audio interface 2) multiple processes playing multiple audio files to a single audio interface 3) multiple processes playing multiple audio files to multiple audio interfaces 4) a single process playing multiple audio files to multiple audio interfaces tell us which one it is, and we can provide more specific help. the use of /dev/dsp0 and /dev/dsp1 under OSS corresponds to either 3 or 4 in the list above, but its not clear which. --p ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
