[linux-audio-dev] LADSPA "Unique" IDs

I vaguely remember a discussion here about LADSPA ID's (unsigned long
UniqueID) not actually being globally unique to a plugin like the header
implies, but I can't find it in the archives.

So.. unique or not?  Basically I need to know what the "proper"
information is to send a synth in order to load a plugin.  At the moment
I'm sending filename and index, which I don't think is ideal.  (The
synth could be running on a completely seperate machine, so the sender
and receiver might not have the same LADSPA plugins around...)

Thanks,

-DR-
