I don't know what sort of A/V method you are using, but needing a callback for it seems wrong to me. snd_pcm_delay() gives you a way to calculate the delay between you writing samples to the buffer and them actually arriving at the speakers. You can therefore calculate the exact time a particular sample will reach the speakers, and work out the A/V sync required from that. This is how xine works to achieve A/V sync. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
