Hello,

I recently started to check whether the new alsa drivers still work with BpmDj (http://bpmdj.yellowcouch.org/). Thereby I encountered the problem that the reported latency might be larger than the buffersize itself.

I guess this has to do with the asynchronity between asking the question and retrieving the answer (e.g: a thread switch might come in between and the actual latency is in that case bumped beyond the buffersize.. or so .. Does this reasoning make sense ? Can I assume that such weird values are indeed correct ?

Another problem I sometimes encounter is that the returned latency is -1; a very annoying number since the stream was truly honoustly playing, so how can the latency be so low then ?

With kind regards,

Werner,-
