I am attempting to write a "simple" audio playback program. Well, I thought it would be, but... Somehow (thru strace) the 'snd_pcm_writei' call goes and eventually does a system 'poll' call, but it doesn't return indicating that a write is OK to do. I've used similar parameters in 'aplay' and I see that it works.
The basis of the program I'm writing is the one described in _A Tutorial on Using the ALSA API_ (http://equalarea.com/paul/alsa-audio.html), section entitled "A Minimal Playback Program". One thing I've noted: Some of the data printed out by "snd_pcm_dump" is different between my program and 'aplay'. I suspect that there is a clue somewhere, but what is the "magic"?? If necessary, I can provide the 'strace' or the output from 'snd_pcm_dump', but in the interest of brevity... Any "great clue" would be appreciated. Thanks. ===== -- Tom Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
