Re: [Protux-devel] protux /libmustux 0.19.4 are out

[Luciano Giordana]

This is strange, I have been using in RTC *all the time*, and it is pretty 
normal and stable here.
But when I set setuid , I indeed get some crashes. Only running as root seems 
to make it run smoothly.
Running in real time is a requirement to get low latencies.  So I suggest you 
to check what happens with other
applications that use real time scheduling, such mplayer or ardour.
