I've ripped various cds, producing a bunch of WAV files (hey, if you've got the disk space, why throw away musical content by doing a lossy compression?). I'm using splay (0.8.2) and waveplay (2000.12.10) to play them. The ripping was done with dagrab (0.3.5), which reported that it didn't need to do any jitter corrections. The problem I'm having is that I'm getting "blip"-like noises, several per second (hard to count, but they're well-spaced enough that most of the music comes through ok, maybe 5-10?). It seems to take a few seconds for them to start happening. As best I can tell, I'm not getting analog clipping (if so, it's in the ES1371; haven't actually dragged an o'scope out yet). The same problem happens with MP3s, and has no apparent correlation with other system activity (the machine is used as an ssh-capable X terminal). The source filesystem has 32KB blocks and fragments, and 128 cylinders per group. The drive is "ata1-slave using UDMA66", and has dma enabled. The master on that bus is a DVD player which is not in use at the moment. Beyond the obvious things I've alluded to checking above, the only theory I've been able to come up with is that 32KB is roughly 200ms, and I could believe I'm getting five blips per second, which would indicate a problem at filesystem block boundaries. Not sure how to test that, though. Has anyone else encountered this, or have suggestions as to how to make it go away?

There should be a control to limit the buffering. Perhaps there already is (I don't know the esd api). Btw, are there esd alternatives ?

I'm currently porting GGI ;) This is why I'm interested in kernel graphic support. I have already something done which is based on the VGL library (keyboard and display in VGA modes -- the mouse is the standard linux-mouse of GGI on top of /dev/sysmouse). It's already in the GGI library source package. I can't hide much longer that my project is to get KGI ported to FreeBSD. But that's another huge part. First, I'd like to have a clean overview of VGA/VESA/FB support in FreeBSD. I think that with some efforts in the newbus direction, I'd get rapidly this overview, isn't it? Actually I moved to GGI / FreeBSD considerations because we need, in my company, some proof of our capability to integrate low level stuff in open source kernels. The second point is that I personaly think that FreeBSD has some lacks in graphic support and that XFree is something to heavy. I'd really love... a graphic boot. Yes, I know, that's not a priority for FreeBSD headquarters :) For this I'll need graphic very early in the boot stages and I'll certainly ask you more about this soon or later.

Well, I understood that "multiple instances" might work with a daemon. Like multiple instances of mices work with moused. And that such a beast doesnt exist, except in "fancy desktop environements".

What > program I need to execute first?? Mpeg ?? how?? Thaks for the help.. Many aspects. Well, seems you have the bandwidth. Install the mpeg_encode package and read the manual. The parameter file is well commented. You must have the netpbm package installed too. Then it is easy, if you have TGA files, Premiere, blender etc.. This way you get MPEG Video *files*. You can put them onto a webserver. Then it gets tricky. You must get some kind of a player. And a metafile. Read http://www.uni-bonn.de/~uzs106/ on MPEG Video filelists etc. Good luck !! Sorry, I dont have a working windows solution. There are Real and Apple with application/smil. Real can play MPEG Video on Windows. It once did so here ;-) Apple did release QT 5 for Wintels, they say it can play MPEG Video now. It did in some cases. It is all very buggy. The best would be to use audio/x-mpegurl and m3u MPEG audio filelists for Video as well. With the MS Media player. Never seen any problems. But this isnt kosher with all the many audio only installations in the world. IMHO. So until MS supports MPEG Video filelists, you will have trouble. Or write your own client. H.

Can someone suggest a way to test 2 or more play channels? Look at pcm_register and pcm_addchan in sound.c and dsp_open in dsp.c. Once the extra channels are added in the device attach function, and nodes are made in /dev (manually in 4.2R) for dsp0.0 dsp0.1 dsp0.3 etc different apps can get a playback channel by opening a different one of these. > Also, /dev/sequencer doesn't work.

Both Linux loads were pain-free and worked on the VIA based designs without any glitches. The only problems encountered involved the embedded audio. Both distributions seemed to recognize the embedded audio during installation, but neither was able to make it work correctly. Looking at the included Soyo Driver disk, there were some VIASOUND drivers included for both the Caldera and RedHat distros (these were the only distros supported). Unfortunately, these drivers were already compiled for older versions of both the RedHat (6.0 and 6.1) and Caldera 2.2. No source files were included, so we were unable to recompile the drivers for the most recent distributions. Even some low level hacking to try and get these older drivers to work yielded nothing functional. We are currently talking to Soyo to lend some input into getting the audio source files included on the driver disks. VIA states on their website that they don't currently support Linux, but are currently developing drivers and plan to support it in the future. Let's hope this situation improves soon." Rats! This mb is cheap and fast but the sound is a real problem, as it seems to interfere with pci sound cards as well. I'm going to try some more things before screaming!
