[Alsa-devel] alsa sequencer: note interface

2002-10-14 Thread Richard Bown
A question - if you're sending a load of MIDI notes (as opposed to noteons/noteoffs) with very long duration and to curtail these notes you're sending notes with shorter (finite if you like) duration to same channel/pitch should the longer ones clear down from ALSA and get cast away? At the m

Hi, Is it correct that an app should have to snd_seq_drop_input_buffer() every so often when reading events in via snd_seq_event_input()? If I don't drop the input buffer periodically then the input buffer appears eventually to clog up - only allowing a few events through at a time. Whilst the
