Yea, that one should fix it ;) > I'm curious why qemu/qemu-kvm even bothers?

No. It uses the wMaxPacketSize to pick a useful buffer size for iso endpoints. In master / upcoming 1.1 usb-host enables pipelining for bulk endpoints. Beside that enabling the usb_host_parse_* tracepoints gives a useful trace of guest activities (you should see your guest picking alt #3). cheers, Gerd
