Hi list,
(Sorry this question has already been discussed but the search function in the archive of
the list does not work)
Is anyone working on the problem of getting Jack up and running on MacOS again? I
installed Jack with brew but I get these “could not handle external client request” errors
which seems to be old problems from looking at search results and GitHub discussions -
problems introduced when MacOS audio architecture was changed a while back. Is there any
progress on these matters? Is someone working on it? I need Jack as it is a dependency to
another library I would like to use but I realize that I might have to abandon MacOS as a
platform in the process.
I looked at this a year or so ago, but ended up concluding that it was
too much work (for someone who had little to gain from it other than
just interest). I concluded in the case of JackOSX it would require an
almost full rewrite of the Router for modern macOS APIs. I could
probably look into it again, if someone could convince me :)
