In theory such a thing could exist, it would be an ALSA device that receives and/or sends audio using the njbridge protocol. No resampling would be needed as it would be the 'master' device on the local system. In practice that is not very likely to happen, the reason being that interfacing to Jack is so much more easy than writing an ALSA driver. Also, passing via Jack does not add any latency, and in most cases users will want the flexibility it provides. 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.
