I also don't have any trouble with USB sound card (I use a Presonus Audiobox 1818VSL). I also use Jack Audio. The thing about Jack audio is that you can normally use just one card with it because it demands that all the clocks are kept locked together, which then allows all sorts of nice things like mixing streams together. That said you can dump other devices into Jackd using resamplers ("alsa_in" and "alsa_out"), but with an overhead and performance cost.
So my question is that, when I use Jack, I can't seem to add any other sound device to Rivendell. For example, it would be nice to use the computer's built in sound device as a "cue" output and I don't care if it is part of jackd or not. The device shows up in ALSA just fine (it is device #2, as device #0 is a Loopback, and device #1 is the AudioBox 1818VSL), yet rdadmin on that host can't find it anywhere. I have an old laptop as the only computer that happens to have Rivendell installed (just a test system) without jackd running. I'll try adding a USB sound device to it and see if I can get it to show up as a usable choice in Rivendell. Does anyone actually have multiple ALSA devices running in Rivendell (either with or without Jackd)? _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
