--- Comment #4 from Jörg Höhle hoehle@users.sourceforge.net 2012-03-06 07:49:24 CST --- Look at patch #84102 for a list of bugs:
This is one of the most important audio-related late pre-1.4 patches. It fixes bug #30071, bug #28856, allows to close bug #28723 and perhaps every other bug report about occasional or continuous crackling sound from ALSA, e.g. bug #28622, comment #34 or bug #28282.
Well, DSound still has issues on its own.
that doesn't mean they can't use something else instead.
WineXYZ.drv happens to use CTQ and doing so, uncovered a non-conformance in its implementation. The expected response is to become conforming, e.g. by applying the suggested patch or a similar one, not to suggest that you're waiting for an app author to complain directly about bad CTQ intervals and dismiss Wine-internal feedback and needs.
Please read http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2012-March/094525.html for a summary of native w7 behaviour. It again proves that Wine is non-conforming to (Vista/w2k8/)w7 behaviour.
Well, major + minor -> normal as average :-) Anyway, I don't care. At one point in time, audio was considered an important goal for 1.4.0. I don't know if that's still the case, but either we use a few chances to fix some of audio prior to 1.4.0, or I stop wasting my time on Wine audio and go read a good book and sleep well at night, without worrying about what improvement to apply next.
