Hya, I've just brought jack-stdout up to scratch. jack-stdout captures audio from one or more JACK audio-ports and writes raw data to standard-output. It can write signed/unsigned 16/24bit integer and 32bit floating-point data, both big/little endian. * http://rg42.org/oss/jackstdout/ * git://rg42.org/jack-stdout example usage - live stream from JACK: jack-stdout system:capture_1 system:capture_2 \ | oggenc -r -R 48000 -B 16 -C 2 - \ | tee /tmp/recording.ogg \ | oggfwd -p -n "my live stream" localhost 5900 hackme live.ogg have fun, robin
