Hi Christoph - yes, that was the gui I was working on. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Jack wont start for some reason from the CLI (I don't know why) |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Here is a transcript of the session attempt to start jackd |

JACK compiled with System V SHM support |

loading driver .. |

creating alsa driver ... hw:0|hw:0|1024|2|48000|0|0|nomon|swmeter|-|32bit |

control device hw:0 |

configuring for 48000Hz, period = 1024 frames, buffer = 2 periods |

Couldn't open hw:0 for 32bit samples trying 24bit instead |

Couldn't open hw:0 for 24bit samples trying 16bit instead |

ALSA: cannot set number of periods to 2 for capture |

ALSA: cannot configure capture channel |

I really don't know what the problem is, as ALSA works fine, its in use with audacity. |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
Any pointers you can provide would be great, |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
Sadly, it turns out that ardour does not have the one specific functionality that I needed, but it may be useful anyway, and I would like to play with it. |
