Really? With URBs having 1 uframe periodicity?? I doubt it. Maybe with ones having 1 frame (8 uframe) periodicity; in those cases the system will often be fast enough. > FWIW, I'm suggesting not a fundamental redesign, but the following: > > a) do not release the schedule until it would have XRUN (wait for an empty > slot) > b) a release time 'completion' at the XRUN point (when the next > scheduled slot would go by unfilled) to give usbaudio a chance to push > out a dummy URB if it desires to keep the ISO going. For periodicity == 1 uframe, this represents no change... ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
