Hello All,

I am facing a certain problem in the application development using ALSA.Below is the small description of my problem

I am trying to read from the capture device using "snd_pcm_readi"; but sometimes i get a error saying "error reading from capture device : broken pipe -32". Which results in the audio break.

I have tried to use the port in blocking as well as non blocking mode but that does not seem to help. I have tried to make sure the buffer sizes match, using the below mentioned formula.

ALSA Buffer size in my Apllication = 1024 * 8 = Periodsize * number of periods = HW Buffer size

Can you please suggest me, as to what could be the reason for the broken pipe error and how can I get rid of that?

regards, -Ketan
