> Audio dropouts when storing analysis data on my eeePC. We need to analyses this issue, before we change anything here.
I don't know if we are able to do anything on that from mixxxs perspective, but:
Since I'm doing 'time-machine like' backups on my local hdd at runtime automatically, I get serious audio dropouts when running mixxx and that backup schedules at the same time.
The backup is running with lowest io prio, but probably loads the disk (it is writing to) so much, that mixxx can't get the audio files from that disk.
Mixxx isn't caching the playing tracks in memory, but getting the audio from disk on demand? Is there some kind of logic like 'I run out of audio-file buffer recently, maybe I should cache more than the current sample count'? Maybe that could help. Maybe there would be one single dropout, but after that mixxx would try to preload more data to have it availiable.
Maybe I should open another bug for that, but didn't know what terms to search for and found this one, maybe related, don't know if there are others pointing in the same direction...
