[linux-audio-dev] [ANN] jack_input 0.1 for AlsaPlayer

[Andy Lo-A-Foe]

Hi,

jack_input is an AlsaPlayer input plugin. Connect any JACK output port
to the alsaplayer input ports. 

Pros:

* Volume / pan control through alsaplayer
* Visualize your JACK streams with alsaplayer scopes
* Feed live input to alsaplayer (line-in, mic, etc)
* Export jack streams to other audio subsystems supported by alsaplayer
  (not recommended, unless output is through the same input hw)
* ???

Cons:

* alsaplayer's internal format is still 16-bit
* possible distortion if machine is heavily loaded (input overruns)
* high latency caused by aggressive internal buffering 
* not configurable enough

Usage:

$ alsaplayer -ojack jack_input:

This will load the jack input plugin and create 2 new input ports:
alsaplayer_in:in_1
alsaplayer_in:in_2

Connect your output to these ports. Warning: loops are possible :-)

Enjoy!
