RightMark Audio Analyzer

What works

Application launches normally

What does not

Application does not behave correctly because of Wine audio settings. Wine audio settings must be forced to OSS (eventhough using ALSA's OSS API emulation) in order to have a correct "Playback" and "Recording" devices in RMAA.

With Wine Audio set to ASLA, "Adjust Playback/Recording levels" windows (realtime spectrum as well as level indicators) won't show up. This may be due to "Recording" device set to "dsnoop:0".

With Wine Audio set to OSS, "Playback" and "Recording" devices are set to the name of sound card ("Cirrus Logic CS4294 rev 5,Cirru" as displayed here) and "Adjust Playback/Recording levels" windows shows up. This window indicates if audio levels are good enough for testing soundcard in loopback mode (LineOut plugged into LineIn). The problem is about the oscillation of the audio level, it constantly toggles from "Levels are OK" to "Warning: Level of distortion too high" and also to "Warning: The input levels are too high".

Also, as a side effect, the "Adjust Playback/Recording levels" spectrum window won't last very long and vanishes after a few seconds as if we clicked on "Start test" (on the levels indication window) and the test begins.

Of course, the oscillation mentionned above makes the whole analysis useless as the audio levels are not constant.
