Are you suggesting to shoot in the dark for magic combinations here, and that _both_ too low and too high values lead to same error messages? Absolutely. Larger unfortunately isn't better here. You are right that larger period sizes normally give the driver more time to complete its work. With firewire, it's crucial to provide a stable ISO streaming to the device, and when you increase the buffer size, packets are sent less frequently. Together with jittered timing, the device might had run out of packets, thus giving the typical xrun. This behaviour will go away when FFADO moves to kernel space and can rely on interrupts from the firewire host controller. This guarantees to be woken up by hardware as soon as possible, but since FFADO is userspace at the moment, having too large buffers could mean too long to wait to get send and receive streams correctly aligned. (this is the dry running state, a warm up phase taking place before actual operation to tune both ends (the host and the device) to their specific timings) On Juju, I usually operate my device at -p 512 and -n3 (which is the default). When I omit -p (in other words: use the default 1024), I see xruns and less stable operation. However, unless -p is extremely small, every value should at least be able to put the device into running state. If not, this might be caused by underlaying timestamp errors, which are mostly due to broken controllers. You could increase -v to let's say -v5 to get more details.

vls REMOVED from testing
FYI: The status of the vls source package in Debian's testing distribution has changed. Previous version: 0.5.4+cvs20031028-9 Current version: (not in testing) Hint: Package not in unstable The script that generates this mail tries to extract removal reasons from comments in the britney hint files. Those comments were not originally meant to be machine readable, so if the reason for removing your package seems to be nonsense, it is probably the reporting script that got confused. Please check the actual hints file before you complain about meaningless removals. -- This email is automatically generated once a day.
