CDDA lag when using more than one CD-ROM
by bakslashr from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53JGC)
I am attempting to back up my audio cds (time to throw them out) to the cloud. I have a two cd-roms. I am using cdrdao to read the audio from, and vlc to listen to the cd audio on the other drive.
However, I am finding that while cdrdao is reading the one audio cd, that it seems to be affecting the performance of listening to the other cd. (lots of lag with both vlc and mplayer)
Code:ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to 4558 ms)To take it one step further, even when I use cdemu, to emulate the ripped audio, that it experiences the same audio lag when the hardware cd-rom is being read from. When it is not being read from, then the audio is smooth.
It appears to be a case of buffer exhaustion, however I am confused to how this can be the case since it seems as if they should be separate entities.
