3.2. Mouse/Input Setup

Between rendering and outputing these blocks terminatorX checks for mouse motion. The problem with mice is: they donīt report when they have stopped. This is why terminatorX assumes your mouse has stopped if there is no motion reported for certain amount of render/output-cycles. This value is configurable via the Stop-sense-cycles option. If you decrease your buffsize of course you shorten the cycle time as well, therefore if you here strange stop/run behaviour of the audio ouput while scratching after you decreased the buffersize you might have to increase the stop-sense value too.

Xinput Device: WARNING: Use this option *only* if you want to use an input device other than your default-mouse for scratching. Selecting your default pointer will cause terminatorX to crash. See the "Using a turntable" section on the terminatorX homepage for details.
