[meta-intel] Alsa sound glitches with GStreamer

[Chris Tapp]

I'm using GStreamer 1.4.5 with the valleyisland-64 BSP built under 'daisy' to play DVB TS video streams from a MuMuDVB instance on another system.

This is generally working ok, but the audio sometimes has glitches in it which are sometimes bad enough to make it impossible to follow. The problem will either show or not when the GStreamer pipeline starts - once it's running the playback quality remains consistent (if it starts ok, it stays ok).

GStreamer is not reporting any errors or warnings - is it possible that this is related to the ALSA system itself? If so, how can I go about investigating/tracking down what's going on?
