Hi Robert,

Make sure, that the user which starts jackd is allowed to raise the real

See http://jackaudio.org/faq/linux_rt_config.html
Most distributions ship and install a limits.conf snipped file with the
jack package. Here is an example from CentOS/Fedora:
cat /etc/security/limits.d/95-jack.conf
# Default limits for users of jack-audio-connection-kit
@jackuser - rtprio 70
@jackuser - memlock 4194304
In this case, the user has to be in the @jackuser group to be able to
raise the priority.
2. recompile
jack2 without dbus support
Ok, so I've compiled/installed jack2 without dbus support, and I'm now running
jackd on a RT patched Raspbian Stretch (https://github.com/guysoft/RealtimePi)
And it seems to work wonderfully, no problem reaching buffer sizes below 1 ms. Happy
joy!
I start jack with:
sudo jackd -P70 -d alsa -r 48000 -p 64 &
sudo jack_wait --wait --timeout 10
sudo jack_connect system:capture_1 system:playback_1
sudo jack_connect system:capture_2 system:playback_2
I need sudo, otherwise allocation of shared memory + realtime prio setting fails. And then I've setup the ALSA JACK PCM plugin, but
to use aplay I need to use sudo aswell:
sudo aplay -D pcm.jack /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav>
Is there a way to set this up so sudo is not needed?
What error message do you get without sudo? Maybe your user has to be in
the "audio" group (or similar).

Chris
