Editors Note: The original patch was modified to use SDL_Delay() instead of nanosleep because nanosleep may not be portable to all systems using SDL with the ALSA backend. This may be a moot point with the switch to blocking writes anyway... Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2003 21:47:36 +0100 From: Michel Daenzer To: Debian Bug Tracking System Subject: [SDL] Bug#225252: [PATCH] ALSA fixes Package: libsdl1.2debian-all Version: 1.2.6-2 Severity: normal Tags: patch For SDL 1.2.6, the ALSA backend was changed to call snd_pcm_open() with SND_PCM_NONBLOCK. That's a good idea per se, however, it causes high CPU usage, interrupted sound and stuttering in some games here. Taking a nanosleep whenever snd_pcm_writei() returns -EAGAIN fixes this, but I think it's more efficient to use blocking mode for the actual sound playback. Feedback from the SDL and ALSA lists appreciated. The patch also fixes the default ALSA device to be used.

.TP 20
\fBformat\fR
Overlay format (see below)
.TP 20
\fBw, h\fR
Width and height of overlay
.TP 20
\fBplanes\fR
Number of planes in the overlay\&. Usually either 1 or 3
.TP 20
\fBpitches\fR
An array of pitches, one for each plane\&. Pitch is the length of a row in bytes\&.
.TP 20
\fBpixels\fR
An array of pointers to teh data of each plane\&. The overlay should be locked before these pointers are used\&.
.TP 20
\fBhw_overlay\fR
This will be set to 1 if the overlay is hardware accelerated\&.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
A \fBSDL_Overlay\fR is similar to a \fI\fBSDL_Surface\fR\fR except it stores a YUV overlay\&. All the fields are read only, except for \fBpixels\fR which should be \fIlocked\fR before use\&. The \fBformat\fR field stores the format of the overlay which is one of the following: 
.PP
