[alsa-devel] ALSA Underrun / Silence playback

[Irfan shaikh]

Hello Clemens,

             I have used my threshold as boundary value {after calling  
snd_pcm_sw_params_get_boundary() } also and checked the audio performance.
I was still getting UNDERRUN's (-32).

             if (snd_pcm_sw_params_set_stop_threshold 
(alsaParams->pcm_handle, alsaParams->p_swparams, threshold) < 0)
             {
                     printf("Could not gete 
snd_pcm_sw_params_get_boundary");
                     return NULL;
             }

What's weird about this number?

--> I set my alsa buffer size as (512 period size and 16 periods)
       As snd_pcm_sw_params_get_boundary(), returns boundary in frames.
       I was not able to get how the boundry which i get (1572864000) is 
more than the buffer size (512 X 16) which i have set.

Regards
Irfan
