Hi Tim,
Yup, I meant reducing the latency! Thanks so much for replying. This is easy
then :)
The main issue that I am facing is that I overwrite the playback buffer with
new data before my previous data has finished playing. This is what MSDN
documentation says about asynchronous IO:
"Do not deallocate or modify the OVERLAPPED structure or the data buffer
until all asynchronous IO has been completed."
Due to this, I get missing data in my audio stream. Do you have any
suggestions?
Thanks,
Pallavi
