Ze,
The USB_START_ISO_TRANSFER_ASAP flag should never ever be used in
production drivers, neither for tx nor for rx. If the system is really
busy, say
it runs some kind of 3D video test, these requests will be failing
consistently.
As per Microsoft USB folks, you should always use an explicit StartFrame and
should always schedule transactions at least 5 frames in advance to let USB
stack have sufficient time to get ready for them in all respects.
Hope that helps,
-Ilya

Hi,Tim
Asks for your help .
1) When I set USB_START_ISO_TRANSFER_ASAP , there will be 6 empty SOF
between each IN token , So I don’t use it .
But as you have suggested, I should queue up a bunch of URBs .I
understand it like that I should send a URB with multiple packets and
set USB_START_ISO_TRANSFER_ASAP . Does it ? But that will make the
return pkts in one buffer , I should to parser them ?
2) Sorry for making you confused , what I said in second paragraph is
not right 
I just means sending a URB with multiple packets , and
the ruturn data size will more than what I have specifed in
‘UrbIsochronousTransfer.TransferBufferLength’ .
