I hope it'll consistently work from now on. :) All this gave me some headache as well back when I started using aconnect, especially the input/output naming. If I where asked, I'd say it is a mistake in aconnect, since Jack audio, Jack MIDI and qjackctl all handle it the other way round. However, me (humble) just assumed there is a valid reason from a dev POV to name I/O towards the 'connecting entity' instead of towards the 'application entity'. Changing it now would certainly be a bad idea, breaking all apps and scripts that rely on aconnect. best, d _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
