Re: [Denemo-devel] 0.9.4rc1 tarball for testing

[Richard Shann]

I notice a comment in audiointerface.c
// FIXME: synchronize access from multiple threads

I have tried making playback_time an int and getting and setting it
atomically, which improved the chances of it working, but it still
deadlocks sometimes. I notice that putting a printf inside the loop of
the queue_thread_func (line 350) also makes the deadlock much less
likely.
But truly I am a blind man here, groping in the dark.
(I also dropped the display updates during playback entirely with no
effect).
