For the record, QJackMMC is an ALSA *and* JACK Midi slave, but you're
right that it only listens to MMC messages and does not produce them.
You're also right that it won't help you at all, but I did want to set
the record straight ;)

that's correct. qtractor mmc-locate resolution is crippled to 30fps

Is that a polite invitation to go fix it myself? ;-)
yes (or no:) qtractor does not send out any
mmc-locate messages on its
loop turnarounds. sorry. thinking of it, i am not sure whether that is a
polite thing to do. let me think again...
aha. it brings me down to this humble fact that qtractor mmc
implementation is no substitute for jack-transport whatsoever...
I know that qtractor does jack-transport, but unfortunately that doesn't
help me since Pd is the client that I use, which has no (built-in)
jack-transport support whatsoever. There might be a Pd external implementing
that kind of thing, but my application needs to run in environments where
just the vanilla Pd might be installed, so I wouldn't want it to depend on
some obscure 3rd party plugin if I can avoid it.
have you tried jackctlmmc? or is it qjackmcc?
hmm, i don't quite
remember... my aging memory is failing on the spot:)
jackctlmmc / qjackmcc goes the wrong way round, it's an ALSA MMC slave that
drives jack-transport. I'd need exactly the opposite. :) I've been googling
for that kind of thing, but there doesn't seem to be any (apart from other
full-blown sequencer/HDR applications).
So, in the light of these observations, it still seems worthwhile to have
better MMC support in Qtractor. Do you have any plans to work on this some
time?
slaintheva!
Cheers!
