Re: [nas] audiooss buffer underrun

Hello,

I am trying to play audio remotely using NAS and audiooss. I am running
the program by doing: "audiooss <program> <output to /dev/dsp>". At the
server, I am hearing beating noise and the client machine outputs
"audiooss: buffer underrun".

One of the suggestions on this mailing list was to edit nasaudio.c and
increase the buffer size. I assume the variable to increase is
MIN_BUFFER_SIZE but even if I increase it to 64 times the original value,
I am still getting buffer underrun. I also tried changing the output rate
of my program to very low output rates (1000 Hz), but still no resolution.

Am I editing the right value? Is there any other work-around?


I haven't played with audiooss is awhile, but I assume that:

  - auplay on some wav file works ok?
  - using audiooss on something like 'play' works ok?

  It just sounds like the audiooss library is simply not getting data
  fast enough... Increasing the buffer size might help if you were
  having overruns, but since you are not...

  Of course I am assuming that this underrun is not happening at the
  server...
