	Ecasound a bit shy on information by Julien Claassen :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hello all! Ecasound is a bit shy, when it comes to warning me. I just had a big chansetup, one file had the wrong samplerate (not the standard). Ecasound went ahead quietly ignoring it, not playing it, which was a pity, because it took me a long time finding it. Usually, I think it does notify the user of such mishabs. any idea what might have happened?

I just had a big ...this is an old problem. E.g. already in 2002 we had items like: "Better checks for parsing operator arguments." http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2134179&group_id=4605&atid=104605 ... and it's still not closed. Quite a bit work has been done, but definitely a lot more could be done. In general, I recommend raising specific problems on the list, perhaps explaining what kind of error message or warning, would you have expected. With this info, adding stricter checks and proper error messages is fairly straighforward. Patches to the error messages themselves are also warmly welcome! Esperically for me personally, noticing these, sometimes very stupid omissions, can be difficult. I've used ecasound for +10 years and I'm too accustomed to the interface at this point. Plus I tend to still follow the same usage patterns as before, so in my own non-testing use of Ecasound I only use limited part of the interface (and most probably unknowingly avoid existing pitfalls). > chansetup, one file had the wrong samplerate (not the standard). > Ecasound went ahead quietly ignoring it, not playing it, which was > a pity, because it took me a long time finding it. Hmm, this sounds more like a bug. Ecasound should raise an error if a chainsetup has two or more objects with locked sampling rates (= rate cannot be set to an arbitrary value), and not all rates match. The check is done when you issue "cs-connect". What did "cs-connect" output in your case... (if anything)...? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

	Re: Ecasound a bit shy on information by Julien Claassen :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hello Kai! Ecasound didn't get me any error message. Not that I could find it. It just started working and all else was as it should have been. Only the input with the incorrect samplerate was missing. I'll rerun the chainsetups though with all errors in place and see what I can get.
