This is invalid. The pointer callback must return 0 in this case. The value the pointer callback returns is between 0 and buffer_size-1.
sry, typo, 5 periods of 64 frames
Then it must be OK. If the stream is stopped, it's likely by the buffer underrun detection or so...
is there any way to compile alsa to get some debugging information about that?
BTW, you should be sure that the buffer size is aligned to the period size if such a design is assumed. Without the extra constraint, it could be unaligned as default.
hm, afaict alignment should be ok ...
thnx, tim
