Not really. That flag means if there isn't a server running, start one. It doesn't start another Jack server if one is already running. So yes, it is Jack "automagically" knowing whether it should run a server or not. It doesn't need to be running anything beforehand though - the check is made when the software registers a new client. > both of which already > have separate configuration files for default behaviour I believe... (And > obviously that all already assumes it's Jack2 in use.) Yes, that's the fun of this with the launch behaviour hard-wired in at compile time. I now remember that the bit that confused me was why the settings file created by QJackCtl was being ignored - because I wasn't using dbus in normal use. > Does this API exist and work with both Jack1 and Jack2?

Yes, and (kind of) yes. ;-) Neil -- Neil C Smith Artist : Technologist : Adviser http://neilcsmith.net Praxis LIVE - hybrid visual IDE for creative coding - www.praxislive.org Digital Prisoners - interactive spaces and projections - www.digitalprisoners.co.uk _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
