[Jsynthlib-devel] Midi loopback test fails

[Brent B. <br...@ke...>]

In what may be the first non-spam post on this list in ages, I have a 
question...  :)

Using version 0.20 on Debian with a 2.6 kernel, connected to a Delta 
1010 (which has a MIDI IN and OUT on an external rackmount box), I am 
able to talk to the device when I use /dev/midi01 (since the sound chip 
on my motherboard is card 0, and the Delta is 1).

However, JSynthLib's MIDI loopback test seems to lose a byte or two 
every time.  Are there some kind of latency requirements I should know 
about, or what would be the best place to start troubleshooting this?  I 
am certain it's not the MIDI cable -- it's fairly short.
