Hi http://www.alsa-project.org/~iwai/OSS-Emulation.html states that echo "quake 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss should enable direct mode. But when I run echo "csound 3 128 direct" > /proc/asound/card1/pcm0p/oss (which works) what does the numbers "3" and "128" mean and what would be sensible values? I know it's something to do with buffers size, but that's not enough. Also what would such numbers convert to in terms of latency? Thanks in advance... -- peace, love & harmony Atte http://www.atte.dk
