Hi All,

I was working with Dave Philips to try to see what is going on in an
orchestra of his using Jean-Pierre Lemoine's AVSynthesis and I think
I've found an infinite loop in Vosim.  In Opcodes/Vosim.c, in the
vosim function, the following code is what creates an infinite loop:

if (p->pulstogo == 0) {
        /* bypass regular synthesis and fill output with zeros */
        while (p->timrem && nsmps) {
          *ar++ = FL(0.0);
          --p->timrem;
          --nsmps;
        }
        /* Done with perf-block? */
        if (nsmps == 0) {
          /* Here we could override (extreme) timrem if kfund has
increased...? */
          /* But then we'd also have to record event start time(?) */
          break;
        }
        /* else goto top of while loop to make a new event */
        ++nsmps;
        continue;
      }

What happens I'm finding is that p->timrem = 0, and nsmps != 0, that
while block doesn't run, nsmps increases one, then decreases one when
the continue pushes out to the outside while loop that has the
--nsmps.  I'm using GDB and stepping line by line, I see timrem
checked for 0, vosim_event gets called, but then timrem stays at 0.

I'm not sure what exactly is supposed to happen, so hopefully Rasmus
or someone else can chime in.

Thanks!
steven
