Re: [orca-list] an interesting hint to solve the stuttering problemof orca.

["krishnakant Mane" <researchbase gmail com>]

hello,
if port audio is the problem then it could be rather easy since
fingers have already been pointed towards wave.cpp and also a hint to
where the problem lies.
however will it not be better to create a sd driver so that
speech-dispatcher becomes the difacto standard?  I am aware that sd
communicates through alsa and that's where the smoothness and the
better sound quality comes I suppose.
and one more aspect.  I used sd and then played mp3 files with xmms
which has similar interface to winamp on windows.
I could continue to run orca while the musick was playing.
I would therefore be more intrested in driver for sd so that we all
get a better solution.
Can some one give me a starting point on this?
regards,
Krishnakant.
