Uh.. but how small does a buffer have to be that it underruns or
overflows in any short time period?If your system is more or less sane, output should start at say
50% buffer level, then it may grow or shrink, but if chosen big
enough it should take days until the first buffer error happens.I mean, the clocks are supposed to have the same speed. Even if
this is slightly not the case, buffers are big enough to compensate
it up for a seriously long time period.It may be a good idea to shutdown your systems after listening
to music, profoundly to the contrary of the "burning in"
principle we discussed in the other thread...Does this problem really exist? I have never heard of that, which
may suggest this is just a theoretical problem.
