You mean like overload protection? I thought about that, but the drop outs
don't always occur at the same spot in the same audio segment. Having looked at
the Intel ELD code I think it's buggy - on a drop out a "workaround" patch
kicks in that's not even appropriate for my hardware. I did get a hold of the
Intel ELD author, but he no longer maintains it. He did give me a list of
developers to try. I'll experiment with this code and if I don't get anywhere
will utilize the list.
