[Alsa-devel] Period Size in ymf724

2002-09-22 Thread Shaju Abraham
are trying this 'cos we want the card to raise interrupts as frequently as possible. Is this a h/w limitation of ymf724 card or is there any way we can get to reduce the period size on a ymf724 card to around 64 bytes ? Thanx in advance, Shaju Abraham

[Alsa-devel] Correct me if I am wrong few questions

2002-08-21 Thread Shaju Abraham
Hi all, The following is my understanding pls correct me if I am wrong. 1. Buffer_size is how much of memory has been allocated to buffer the sound to be played out. 2. Fragment size is the measure of amount of data played between two consecutive interrupts raised by the

[Alsa-devel] Buffer_size divided into more than 32 frags.

2002-08-21 Thread Shaju Abraham
Hi all, Can frags may be more than the number of bds available i.e 32 ? If yes, does it follow that both of the following cases are possible. i) the whole buffer (of size buffer_size ) can be divided between 32 bds so that a given bd will always point to same address

Hi all, I work on i810 motherboard with built-in sound card. I use aplay with -F option ( set period-time ) to vary the period-time from 166 micro secs to 1500 microsecs. I also vary the buffer time ( with -B option) I observe the following... 1.The number of fragments i.e frags won't

is disabling the interrupts just before this is called? Does spin_lock_irq do that? We are using RedHat 7.1 linux on i810 motherboard and the latest version of ALSA 0.9.0. Shaju Abraham. ALSA ../alsa-kernel/core/pcm_lib.c:188: Unexpected hw_pointer value (stream = 0, delta: -68, max jitter = 4480

Hi all, I am trying to port ALSA code to rtlinux. I am doing it on a intel810 chipset(built in sound card) and linux kernel version is 2.4.4 with rt 3.1 patch. The way we are going abt it is that we are registering the sound card interrupt with rtlinux instead of linux. We have also
