[vlc-devel] regression: sound often missing and appearing in decklink card

[Thomas Guillem]

Hello, thanks for this report.

The trick is to do like the wasapi aout:, In case of error, sleep a little and try again instead of trashing the data.

cf. modules/audio_output/wasapi.c
        /* Out of buffer space, sleep */
        msleep(sys->frames * (CLOCK_FREQ / 2) / sys->rate);

I can work on a fix, but I won't have time until next week.
