Get Jack to release /dev/dsp or hw:0
 
|
Is there a way to make jackd release the dsp while still keeping the
clients connected. I am using the on board sound on an intel 865 chipset board and I have tried using dmix with ALSA but jack does not like that device for some reason. Is it possible for jack to change its output driver on the fly, or will the client connections have to be dropped first. I know I should just get a better sound card, but I can't do that for the moment, so I am just looking for a temporary software workaround for the time being.

In the list archives you should find a patch I sent for 0.99.0 in October '04
that adds this ability (but only for the alsa driver). If you can't find it I'd be happy to send it to you. PS: I also have a version updated for 0.100.0.

It would be better to fix JACK to make it play nice with dmix. This is especially important now that ALSA uses dmix by default.

What I see (if I forget to shut off QJC when doing a shutdown) is pretty much a complete hang. sometimes I have to shell in and sometimes it's a power switch event. Would be nice if Jack could obey whatever sort of shutdown messages are sent out.

Could you send me the patch for 0.100.0 as well and I will test it out with my audio apps. Thanks for the patch and hopefully it will bring to an end my weeks of searching for a solution.

I suspect the problem is at the ALSA driver level as this works for me, and besides no regular userspace app should be able to prevent the machine from shutting down. You should file an ALSA bug report (with more info if you can get it, like an strace of the hung jackd process).

If I then do "jack_device_connect y" the applications connected to jack all crash and give the error "Cannot open shm segment /jack_1 (No such file or directory). Cannot attach port segment shared memory (No such file or directory)". When I look in /tmp/jack0/default I see a socket file called jack_0 so for some reason jack is now trying to connect to jack_1 which does not exist. I've noticed that jack 0.99.0 handles the socket files differently so I will give the older patch a try and I'll give jack_freewheel a try with oss as well.

If Right, since jack's callback is tied to the sound device, disconnecting it effectively stops jack from doing anything. In the apps we've tested this with (more heavily with 0.99 than 0.100) this results in the desired behavoir where most apps (like xmms simply) appear to pause until jack is reconnected. > I then do "jack_device_connect y" the applications connected to jack > all crash and give the error "Cannot open shm segment /jack_1 (No such > file or directory). Cannot attach port segment shared memory (No such > file or directory)". Sorry, the patch for 0.100 has only had the most basic of testing thus far (it compiled). > When I look in /tmp/jack0/default I see a socket file called jack_0 so > for some reason jack is now trying to connect to jack_1 which does not > exist. > I've noticed that jack 0.99.0 handles the socket files differently so I > will give the older patch a try and I'll give jack_freewheel a try with > oss as well. > > Michael. > > > -- > > Sean Meiners > > [hidden email] > > > > Perl - $Just @when->$you ${thought} s/yn/tax/ &couldn\'t %get $worse; > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO > September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices > Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA > Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf > _______________________________________________ > Jackit-devel mailing list > [hidden email] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jackit-devel -- Sean Meiners [hidden email] Perl - $Just @when->$you ${thought} s/yn/tax/ &couldn\'t %get $worse; ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Jackit-devel mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jackit-devel |
