You mean that when having silence, since there is no change, there is no
necessity to be updating the content of the output stream, don't you??? And
if so, is there any way of modifying this?? I have been looking into the
source code, but I am not able to locate where to configure this block size
so it will not make difference between the cases of having silence and
having sound.

Thank you very much, Lennart, you are really helpful!

Regards,

Alvaro
