I have no problems with dropouts on my Delta Audiophile card. Do you run a low-latency/preemptible patched kernel? Do you run ecasound with higher scheduling (-r:sched_priority) ? If not, than you will get dropouts with other cards as well. It's definitely not the ice1712 driver's fault, it's the way the Linux kernel works (or worked on versions >= 2.4) Without higher priority other tasks will sooner or later make realtime audio skip. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__ ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
