An ISA SB, an Ensonic AudioPCI and a Trident 4DWave. The pcm man page says they are all supported, with no mention of any problems. Only one of them can be used to record things usably, and even that drops ~200K of data at regular intervals, creating very noticable dropouts. So I agree with you. <mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
