Hi :)
if you should be subscribed to jack devel, you might be interested in this

I don't expect hints, but it's worth to ask.
Oops, I made a mistake, I only tested the inputs, not the outputs.
Regards,
Ralf

Hi :)
I'm testing audio on FreeBSD. It can't compare to Linux, but it's anyway
interesting.
The card is a RME HDSPe AIO on FreeBSD used without TotalMix and without
ALSA.
The analog IOs are ok, but I get distortion and click noise or gaps when I
use ADAT. When the source is zynaddsubfx with nperiods there aren't gaps,
but there's distortion and there are clicks.
It's only working in duplex mode and I can't drop the word length setting.
I already switched nperiods from 2 to 3.
It might be, that the driver is buggy, but perhaps I need unusual settings
to use ADAT on FreeBSD.
Does somebody know some (secret ;) settings I should test?
jackd -r -doss -r48000 -p1024 -n3 -w16 -C/dev/dsp4.0 -P/dev/dsp4.0 is one
of the settings I tested.
I still didn't check if there are IRQ issues, which is very likely and if
I can unbind devices on FreeBSD.
jackd -r -doss -r48000 -p1024 -n3 -w16 -C/dev/dsp4.0 -P/dev/dsp4.0
jackd 0.121.3
Except for being limited to only 2 IOs with ADAT and not the very best
latency, the card on Linux can be used for serious production.
It's likely that it's a driver issue, but perhaps there is some magic that
can be done by jack, resp. OSS settings to get it working on FreeBSD too.
Any hints are welcome.
Regards,
Ralf
