I've got the following CsOptions in a .csd: -odac -+rtaudio=alsa -+rtmidi=alsa -M hw:1,0 -m0d --expression-opt -b128 -B2048 -+raw_controller_mode=1 I'm running Sugar-on-a-Stick (Fedora/Linux). *On certain hardware only* (particularly an Intel Classmate PC, but others as well) I get the following error message in my log (crash): ALSA: opened MIDI input device 'hw:1,0 orch now loaded audio buffered in 128 sample-frame blocks ALSA: -b 128 not allowed on this device; use 204 instead *** Error setting period time for real-time audio Failed to initialize real time audio output All works fine on most systems. My SR = 44100 (stereo); Ksmps = 100. If I change to SR = 48000 or SR = 32000, no problem. (BTW, changing to -b 204 doesn't work either; if I change to the recommended -b value, *at the third or fourth recommendation* [each time it recommends a new value], it works. Any idea what is happening?

what happens if you try ksmps=64 and -b 256?

Hi, I had the same problem on Ubuntu. In the file /urs/share/alsa/alsa.conf my dmix setting is 48000 samples/sec. So i have to use the following settings to avoid the errors you have:
dmix set to 48000, csd sr =48000, alsa audio output is -odac or dmix set to 44100, csd sr =44100, alsa audio output is -odac or dmix set to 48000, csd sr =44100, alsa audio output is -odac:plughw
This is on Ubuntu, hope this help. Cheers, René 2010/11/30 joachim heintz <jh@joachimheintz.de> what happens if you try ksmps=64 and -b 256? |
