RE: TimeStamps with ischo. transfers



Thanks for clearing up that worry I had.  Presently I had updates following
the callproc, but now I shall remove them.

Hi Philip -

The update step for transmit copies the DMA timestamp to your  
timestamp buffer, and can copy user defined isoch headers to the  
hardware DMA program. If you are not using time stamps and you are  
not updating your headers manually for a running program, you do not  
need the update step.
