Subject[Csnd] question to -b flag
Dear community,
I have the following problem, which I don't undestand.
I have a csd-file with the options:
-+rtaudio=alsa  -+rtmidi=alsa -Ma -odac -m0d -b 1024 -B 1024
when I run this file from command line, I get
ALSA: -b 512 not allowed on this device; using 341 instead
Why I get told -b 512 is not allowed when I have choosen 512?
And, strange enough, I found out that -b 454 -B 1024 works.
How can I find out, which -b and -B sizes my soundcard will accept?
