So you're saying jackd should run at priority

to check for that? I could probably manage such a patch, but running at
priority 1 is what was causing this error for me with jack apps. Is
there a way to match priority from jack apps automatically?
Hi,
there's no priority 0 for SCHED_FIFO threads AFAIK, thus, as jackd runs
at the prio specified via the comandline, the watchdog at prio +10 and
the clients at prio -1, you effectively get a prio of 0 for the clients
when starting jackd with -P 1. Which doesn't work. So, a checking
whether the argument to -P is >= 2 should be enough. Plus the
documentation might need some updating to document the behaviour. I'll
send in a patch for the Documentation in a little while.
Ok, I understand that. So I take it if you set qjackctl priority to 0,
it will not specify it and therefore use the JACK default which is >=2?
I tried setting -P to 2 in qjackctl, and it works fine.
