Hello everybody,
I have no problems to run the xCore Multichannel Audio Platform on any Linux systems. But after a time about 10-20 minutes there will be an error, that no data could be read and the xmos-device will shutdown.
I used a modified version of the xmos reference software. On Windows it works for a long time!
Do you have any ideas, where the problem could be?
How can I get access to some parameter like buffer size and sampling rate on this device (on windows you have a GUI) on linux?
kind regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Cheers,

Have you tested the unmodified XMOS firmware under the same conditions on your Linux host? It would be good to understand if this is an issue with the standard firmware, or related to the changes you have made when trying to determine where the problem might be.xaerox wrote: Do you have any ideas, where the problem could be?
I'm not sure what GUI tools will be available on the particular distribution you're using, but you could always check out the ALSA command line tools to see if they can provide the information you're after. If not, you could add prints to the xCORE software for the info you're interested in and run it with the xTAG attached.xaerox wrote: How can I get access to some parameter like buffer size and sampling rate on this device (on windows you have a GUI) on linux?
