no first solution would be to improve aserver. i thought about it a bit again, and i really think now that implementing something like an shared access into alsa-core would like a complete rewrite. its also ok that alsa has a clean write and read mechanism, its not an easy task like on other devices, cause you have the timing problems, you have to ommit buffer-under- and over-flows etc. its easier to implement and maintain network stuff in an userspace daemon, if you would put all in alsa-core it would be really an overkill. you have not more overhead with an userspace daemon as it would be residing in alsa-core, its the same with the advance that who dont need it, doesnt have to start it. at least as you can handle aserver as a plugin its also usable by oss-apps too. _____ joy > > > - Pasi kärkkäinen > > > ^ > . . > Linux > / - \ > Choice.of.the > .Next.Generation. > > > _______________________________________________ > Alsa-user mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user > _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
