Hi Ray, > KDE 4 is superior. Phonon + Xine (default) let's you use Jack as > primary device. Yeah, it looks nicer (unless you're on a netbook) but I've simply found it significantly less stable, with too many irritating bugs hanging around in core apps. I do understand that the direction they're heading means it's going to be better - one day - and that the audio fundamentals being re-engineered now are going to make a vast improvement too. As I mentioned in another post I just made, I'm still getting weird performance issues using jack as my primary device, and this is on a very grunty, and quite relaxed, machine. > And aren't you looking for a variation of "repeat A-B()"? Probably - though I'm not hip with the nomenclature yet. ;) An interface where I could press a || style button that paused advancement of the track but didn't pause the audio output, is what I'm really after. In my old age I've become much more of a 'give me a button' rather than 'give me a mechanism' kind of guy. cheers, Jedd. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
