I have problems playing sounds in programs that access /dev/dsp directly. Programs like Xgalaga or snes9x show significant (1-2 seconds) delays in any sound they try to play. I have a Sound Blaster 16 PnP. I use the normal FreeBSD sound drivers. This is my kernel sound configuration: controller pnp0 device pcm0 and on boot: pnp 2 0 os enable port0 0x220 irq0 9 drq0 3 drq1 7 port1 0x300 port2 0x388 Tools such as mpg123, xamp, or simple cat > /dev/audio are playing sounds correctly. I don't know what is wrong with this, nor how I can try to debug it... I don't have much experience in dsp programming, so if someone could give me a few pointers, it would be appreciated. anyone experienced the same probs? When a man lies he murders some part of the world These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives All this I can't witness any longer Cannot the kingdom of salvation take me home ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "[iso-2022-jp] ^[$BCf0f^[(B ^[$B9,Gn^[(B" <nakai@internetsolutions.co.jp> To: Spidey <beaupran@JSP.UMontreal.CA> Organization: InternetSolutions, Inc.

Try mpg123, amp, esound or other audio tool in /usr/ports/audio, or simply cat some.au > /dev/audio. If you have same problem with such tools, then it's not snes9x problem. But you say you use the pure Sound Blaster 16 PnP, so it seems only snes9x problem. I couldn't debug that... -------------- Yukihiro Nakai To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
