I'd love to see SCHED_ISO is introduced.
It helps the normal audio streaming.
(but not sure about the video streaming - what happens when the stream
handling is CPU bound?)
I use "streamer" in sched iso mode, and do the video encoding in a separate
application (mencoder) through a pipe. So it's a simple threading issue
where the capture thread is run in sched iso, and the cpu bound encoding
sched normal.
