Hi
?
I used this "sample counting " method to?resample and put my audio
signals in synch.
It worked perfectly?in XP machines using a SoundMax?audio card, but it failed in
other XPs using Realtek cards.
As seen on
http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2008-September/006889.html?my
application?continously checked my AEC level to slighly modify resample
frequency, but convergence was impossible with?that audio?cards.
Then, I used ASIO (through port-audio library) in those machines, and?AEC worked
again. But this solution wasn?t practical (user?must install a special driver)
so?i can?t say if?this method will work or not on *every* machine.?
I think it will not work on Vista, no mather what card you use.
Just my 2c.

Measuring clock drift is a thorny problem that depends greatly on your
hardware setup and OS. In my case (Windows machines) I simply measure
how many samples are played and captured in a given time period, and use
that ratio to calculate the clock drift. Unfortunately these
measurements are usually very noisy and require some high-powered
filtering to get stable results that converge in a reasonable time. I'm
afraid I'm not at liberty to get any more detailed than that. Sorry.
