I know that this has been discussed MANY times before, but I wasn't interested in the question at the time, and I'm not having any luck in finding the old discussions...
It appears that only ONE program can be inputing sound data to ALSA at any given time. Is that true? My experiments have always had the second source delayed till either (a) the first source finished playing (but the program was still running) (implying that it did an open/close on /dev/dsp) or (b) until the 2nd program stopped running (implying that it opened /dev/dsp and held it open till it exited) In either case, it would seem that only one program at a time could have /dev/dsp open at a time (again is that true?) And finally (what I was really looking for in the previous postings) is there any way around this limitation? Let me apologize in advance for bringing up an old topic. -- Reg.Clemens [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
