It would take a bit of learning and to be sure it is doing what you want may take more than just jack_command start, but anything qjackctl can do can be done CLI. I don't expect a control room operator to be a computer admin. (not in any TV/radio station I've worked in) jack.plumbing from the jack-tools package might make your auto connection stuff work well too. (I shouldn't have to say this, but do test these things on a spare machine running the same HW/SW as your on-air box) -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
