Sound driver options starting in 1.0.8

Oct 05, 2004 a1k0n link
For 1.0.8, the Linux sound code reads the following parameters (I also list the default values) from ~/.vendetta/config.ini. It doesn't add them to the file automatically but it does parse them.

[alsa]
nperiods=16
periodsize=256
device=default

[osssound]
nperiods=16
periodsize=1024

osssound's periodsize is in bytes, not samples, so ALSA and OSS have the same default buffer length in time, 92.8 milliseconds. Increasing these values will increase your sound latency but it can help if you experience sound clicks, pops, and stutters.

Also made ALSA driver verify it can open the device; if not the
loader will fall back to the OSS driver.

Looks cool.

Thanks for the great ALSA support.
