[maemo-developers] esound (esd) on N8xx

[From: Klaus Rotter]

Hi there,

I finally got my N810 and so I started testing my new PSK31 program for 
the N8xx series. See: 
https://garage.maemo.org/frs/download.php/2391/MaemoPSK31.png

The app runs fine inside chinook on the PC, but fails on the N810.
It was original based directly on /dev/dsp (opensound) for sound 
handling, and I rewrote it to use esound (which is IMHO much simpler 
that using gstreamer if I just want uncompressed sound in and output.)

Is esound fully supported under OS2008? I use sound input and output at 
16 bit, Mono with 8KHz. Will it be removed in the future?

esd docs say, that the sound will be resampled to the native rate of the 
sound daemon, which is IMHO 44,1 KHz for playing. Maybe this is the 
problem, because it is said that sound recording works just with 8 KHz 
on the N8xx. Anyone tried sound recording with esd on the N8xx?
