Re: [alsa-devel] [PATCH v2 3/3] snd_pcm_start_at: Implement snd_pcm_start_at for system and audio tstamp types.

System tstamp types rely on high-res timers. Audio tstamp types delegate to the pcm driver. Current start_at timer is cancelled on attempt to change stream state.

Are there any difference between sound card's timer with high res timer/wall clock time stamp ?

It seem those sound cards timer have resolution and max tick

snd_timer_status_get_resolution

The clock tick counters are 32 bits and wrap around

This may mean that snd_pcm_start_at can only start within certian time interval
