(I tried googling it, but didn't find any) I managed to do something like this with GNU screen: screen -dm jack_capture -dc --meterbridge --timemachine --port system:playback_1 /dev/null which fires up the meters, and auto-(re)connects nicely. Now the problem remains, once I close the meters by closing their window (clicking the X in my windown manager's window decoration) jack_capture itself will continue to run, as it is waiting for user input. > > Furthermore, automatically reconnecting to jack applications which play > > back audio, does only happen if jack_capture/meterbridge have been > > started when that application (mplayer in my case) was already playing > > back. > > > > > But this is only a problem if you don't run it from a terminal? Yes, when I run from a terminal it reconnects every time indeed. Thank you so much!
