I'm looking into this atm.

Regarding the drop outs using dsp-sbc, the ARM is is transferring 48000Hz x 2 channels x 16bit data to the DSP (512 bytes x 375 per second), which then transfers 78 x 375 bytes back per second. So we don't have a great deal of latency, if anything delays the transfer to or from the DSP we've only got ~1/375th of a second of audio left in the buffer.

Unfortunately this is what bluez provides (without major hacking), obviously a larger transfer buffer would be far better in terms of transfer overhead and delays. We'll have to see if bluez can be hacked a bit more to provide more than the 512 bytes per call it currently does (though I guess much more will start producing syncing problems, not that we have video working anyway though

OK, in that case I will try to flash this kernel image just before leaving office today, and check how that affects drop-outs on may way back home.

Thank you so much lardman.

Now i am waiting to stream internet radio via a2dp and then avcrp.

I've run into my first problem -- the bluez deb package won't install; says there's a conflict. Is there anything I can do to resolve it? Unfortunately, I'm still learning Linux (although I'm a quick learner).

Now I'm having problems with the install_sbcenc.sh file -- not sure what to do with it, I hate to say. I've tried what I've seen on page 19, but I keep getting permission denied while even in root.
