[App_rpt-users] USB fob choppy/stuttering audio

Sorry, not with ASL. I found it best to let it set it, but I check to make sure. ASL is much better than the original based on CentOS. I’ve had the Linux mix it up, but not had that issue since DIAL and ASL.

As Jim has said many times, “friends don’t let friends do USB” :-)

Thanks,

Also, the choppiness is NOT as bad when using the full USB driver instead of SimpleUSB, which I believe conclusively rules out CPU power.
>>> I’ve also tried a powered USB hub, thinking that the USB device was not receiving enough power, with no improvement.
>>> I’ve used the Android mobile app to connect to the node, and the telemetry does not seem to be choppy when listening to it over the app.  While I need to do some more testing to say this conclusively, I do believe at this point that my issue is narrowed down to the USB fob itself and/or the specific audio stream being sent to the device.
