That is because the JACK protocol forces all clients to generate PCM samples, even if they do not want to play currently. There is no way to pause a JACK connection. Idle clients must generate "silence" samples all the time. That JACK design flaw needlessly wastes a lot of CPU cycles, and on laptops, it wastes battery power. MPD does not do that by default. You can use the option "always_on" to force MPD to do it.

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] more than 2 channels?
Hi Max. If it is already possible, how to play a 4 channels wav file through a jack connection? Is there something to configure on the MPD side? When I tried, MPD was creating a 2 channels connection at play time, not a 4 channels connection. Also: how to make a permanent jack connection? When pausing or stopping playback, the MPD jack client disappear. -- Marc Mon, 9 May 2011 07:56:21 +0200, Max Kellermann wrote : > On 2011/05/02 05:25, Marc Lavallée wrote: > > Hello MPD dev team. > > > > I want to play music files with more than 2 channels, with > > typically 4, 6 or 8 channels (or even more).

[Musicpd-dev-team] more than 2 channels?
Hello MPD dev team. I want to play music files with more than 2 channels, with typically 4, 6 or 8 channels (or even more). Is it already possible with MPD? If not, where in the code should I look for, so I can modify MPD to play sound files with multiple channels?
