Hi, I'm the author of jack_capture.

Were you able to record more than 20 minutes of 22ch before with
jack_catpure before, and now it suddenly fails?

Have you upgraded or downgraded jack_capture and/or libsndfile since then?

Which version of jack_capture are you currently using?

Have you tried a different format than wavex?
(wav is probably the the safest format to try since it's one that has
been the most tested. Wav files has a 2gb limitation though, but
jack_capture automatically writes to a new file whenever it reaches
that limit.)

There was a problem many years ago that I used (by accident) a 32 bit
integer instead of 64 bit integer. Perhaps you are using one of those
quite old versions of jack_capture.
