Hi,

The parm->bufsize is shared for all frbuffers, so the formula should be 
correct. In your computation you assume that parm->bufsize gives the maximum 
for each frbuffer. That is not the case.

That means, when you configure bufsize, you must not exceed that size as a 
total when setting up frames. This include all transfer types. I think there 
are asserts for that so you should get a panic fairly quickly.
