Hi Julien,

I did have problems with this also, so I tried several combinations to
see if there was a clear culprit. This is what I got...

(I'm running ecasound v2.6.0)

With 'playat' and 'select' stacked...

ecasound -c -a:1 -i:playat,6.176,select,6.176,2.068,one.wav -a:2
-i:playat,6.176,select,6.176,2.068,two.wav -a:1,2 -f:24,2 -o:jack,system

I did cs-save-as and got...

################ START ECS ################
# general
-b:512 -r:50 -z:intbuf -z:db,100000 -n:"command-line-setup" -X
-z:noxruns -z:nopsr -z:mixmode,avg

# audio inputs
-a:1 -f:s16_le,1,96000 -i:playat,6.176,select,6.176
-a:2 -f:s16_le,1,96000 -i:playat,6.176,select,6.176

# audio outputs
-a:1,2 -f:f32_le,2,96000 -o:jack,system,
################ END ECS ################

With just 'playat'...

ecasound -c -a:1 -i:playat,6.176,one.wav -a:2 -i:playat,6.176,two.wav
-a:1,2 -f:24,2 -o:jack,system

I did cs-save-as and got...

With just 'select'...

ecasound -c -a:1 -i:select,6.176,2.068,one.wav -a:2
-i:select,6.176,2.068,two.wav -a:1,2 -f:24,2 -o:jack,system
