Unfortunately the --silent option do not declare jack I/Os at all. On Tue, Oct 05, 2010 at 04:37:51PM -0300, Lucas Zawacki wrote:

There's a --silent option, but I don't know if this is what you want... I never used it with jack

hello there

I would like to run chuck with more than two outputs in jack (linux). To do so, I'm using the following command:

...

chuck --loop --out8

unfortunately, this command fails with:

...

[chuck]: (via rtaudio): no devices found for given stream parameters: ... RtApiJack: the Jack server does not support requested channels!

it looks like chuck automatically connects to the soundcard inputs and outputs - and if there are not enough I/O ports on the soundcard, it fails.

Is there a way to start chuck without connecting inputs and outputs ?

You could apply the attached patch to the chuck source. It simply disables the autoconnect code, so chuck *never* tries to connect to jack. In general I prefer that jack clients doesn't connect to jack...

Seeing as how both behaviours make sense for different situations; couldn't we merge this patch in, then control the behaviour through a commandline flag?

That'd be lovely (I could probably even wrap it up myself, but I just needed chuck to *not* connect). But from where could such an update be downloaded? It doesn't seem likely that there's a release coming out any time soon... Is there a software repo somewhere? -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk
