One reason for using the bridges (reported in private mail by another user) is the ability to switch soundcards without having to stop Jack. According to that user this is really convenient in particular in combination with suspend resume. Which brings me to the real topic. Currently this is not possible with zita-ajbridge, and the reason is that libzita-alsa-pcmi doesn't support suspend/resume. The next update (being tested ATM) will. Then there is one remaining problem. Upon resume, zita-ajbridge detects 'excessive timing errors' and waits for 15 seconds to let the dust settle. This is essentially the same thing that occured with older Jack versions after free- wheeling. The reason is that the DLL is not properly reset after a resume and is using stale information. I had a quick look at the code, and AFAICS a resume is handled entirely within the backend, and the event is not propagated up to the engine. So solving this may require some non-trivial changes. It would actually make sense to have the DLL inside the backend instead of in the engine. The DLL state is coupled quite closely to that of the backend, and the required code is really minimal. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
