Ross, in addition to the DWORD_PTR, the only feedback I'd have is to use
waveInPrepareHeader(shWaveIn, toRelease, sizeof(WAVEHDR));
instead of
toRelease->dwFlags &= ~WHDR_DONE;
In your releaseHeadBuffer() method. I imagine it's probably doing the same
thing, but in the event anything changes under the hood, I'd let that
method handle header prep.
All in all I've got most of what we talked about resolved now. First off,
you were right, there was a blocking call (actually unbeknownst to me) in
my methods (I actually thought it wasn't blocking at first, so I learned
something). Once I resolved that and got everything asynchronous, audio and
video play fine now. With one weird exception.
The video appears to remain fine, but the audio gets unbelievably scratchy
once more than one client connects. With only one client, everything
streams and plays fine; with more than one (and it appears to grow worse
and worse as more clients grow), the audio starts to get scratchy, sort of
like a record player with a bad needle.
Do you have any idea what this could be about? Is there any particular
debugging code I can start injecting in places to get you more information
about what I'm seeing?
Thanks again for all your help,
Ben
