I wouldn't mind a library you can LD_PRELOAD which replaces open/read/write/mmap/ioctl for audio devices and then mangles it to an appropriate back end.. I was going toward this end but had difficulty getting even a base library to work :( This sort of approach means you don't have to worry about wether you have Esound, NAS, Voxware, OSS or pcm.. Of course it might be a bit slower than normal, but heck, CPU is cheap! ;) --- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
