Hello everypony,
I want to increase my default alsa buffer_size of 8192 to 32768 because
I'm sometimes getting small skips in my audio. Now, usually people use
dmix for this. I'm using the upmix plugin, however, to listen to stereo
music on my 7.1 system.
Could any alsa wizards share the wisdom on how to increase the
buffer_size without dmix or how to chain dmix into this?
My also asound.conf:
pcm.upmix71 {
type upmix
slave.pcm "surround71"
channels 8
}
pcm.!default "plug:upmix71"
Now, I tried something along these lines:
pcm.upmix71 {
type upmix
slave.pcm "buffer"
channels 8
}
pcm.buffer {
type dmix
slave {
pcm "surround71"
period_time 0
buffer_time 0
period_size 2028
buffer_size 32768
}
}
pcm.!default "plug:upmix71"
but apparently I don't grok alsa configuration syntax. I don't even need
dmix itself, I just want to increase the buffer size but apparently dmix
is the only plugin capable of doing just that.
Help much appreciated.
