Radhat/Fedora has a project named pipewire being developed to serve a purpose similar to PulseAudio, except for both sound and video. I believe the intend to bundle it in Fedora 33. I believe it intends to be less um, cumbersome, than Pulse at working with Jack. https://pipewire.org/ /ken _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
