Audio playback typically works fine. The audio driver is broken and it needs to be fixed. Unfortunately this is difficult and time consuming work. Luckily there are a number of things you can try to get baudline recording: • Try recording with all the different sample rates. Many times a couple rates will refuse to work while others will work fine. • Next try starting baudline with different fragment sizes: • baudline -fragsize 6 • baudline -fragsize 7 • baudline -fragsize 8 • baudline -fragsize 9 • baudline -fragsize 10 • Then try varying the number of input fragments, for example: • baudline -infrags 8 • baudline -infrags 4 • baudline -infrags 2 • This can also work for a playback problem, just substitute -outfrags for -infrags. • If still no luck then try combinations of -fragsize and -infrags.
