Thankyou for your comment. I can not work on your problem for a number of reasons. The first being that with two computers and 5 different audio interfaces, I have not had that problem. So for me to work on it, you would have to ship your system to me so I can "work on it". And if it turned out that this was an upstream problem, I would have to ship your system (or sound card) upstream to someone who was willing to work on it. Second, I am not a coder. I can do shell script (bash, tcl/tk and some python) and a bit of c, so long as time is not a consideration... in other words I would not even try to look at real time coding or anything that needed special libs. That stuff right now is beyond me. C++ just doesn't make sense to me, I can use some of the GUI stuff by following examples, but I don't really understand what I am doing. Third, this is not a paid position. That is not how community projects work. If this was a commercial project, the first thing that would happen is they would hire someone better than me. Second that person would have specific goals such as you ask. But in the community based project, volunteers look around for what they can do and what interests them and do it. That is what I am doing. I do also do ISO and install testing as well as some (very little right now) recording. So I know that for my systems jack (and pulse) both work. Speaking of community, as you are a part of it and have a special interest in the problem you have, perhaps you should start there. What some of us can do is help you understand where to start, and what steps to take.

And half a dozen Wallpapers.... How much are you willing to pay for this service? For these promises? How much of a wage are you willing to pay so that we can hire some coders to fix your problems? This is a volunteer project, we are happy when people do something productive that moves the project forward. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
