Subject: 2.5.50 / ALSA: sound cutouts when playing from hd
Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2002 13:00:10 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021130020009.GB612@zip.com.au> (raw)
I seem to be on a roll today. :)
Whenever I play an mp3 from HD I get sound cutouts. I can't really say
when exactly is happening but putting the mpg into ram by running
dd if=mp3 of=/dev/null
until no disc activity occurs seems to solve the issues. The laptop is a
p3-700, 128meg free ram, 44 bytes of swap usage and the following is
reported by hdparm:
/dev/hda:
multcount = 16 (on)
I/O support = 1 (32-bit)
unmaskirq = 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
nowerr = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 256 (on)
geometry = 2584/240/63, sectors = 39070080, start = 0
busstate = 1 (on)
/dev/hda:
Model=TOSHIBA MK2016GAP, FwRev=U0.30 A, SerialNo=X0B70560T
Config={ Fixed }
RawCHS=16383/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=46
BuffType=unknown, BuffSize=0kB, MaxMultSect=16, MultSect=16
CurCHS=17475/15/63, CurSects=16513875, LBA=yes, LBAsects=39070080
IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:120,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}
PIO modes: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
DMA modes: sdma0 sdma1 sdma2 mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 *udma2 udma3 udma4
AdvancedPM=yes: unknown setting WriteCache=enabled
Drive Supports : Reserved : ATA-1 ATA-2 ATA-3 ATA-4 ATA-5
This does not happen with the CD-ROM drive and it's not happening now
with another mp3 (sigh...) but I have had this happen quite a few times
now.
As usual, if you want any more info, please holler.
