Well, everyone is free to write backends for phonon. If you want, you can even

for phonon...
jack (as in professional low-latency audio) and phonon (as in generic
multimedia framework) are two different things. I don't think mixing them can
be done easily. And I don't think it is good to try to.

[*] A multimedia framework does more then audio, it does video as well. And
that is why phonon afaik requires a backend to have video-support too.

Hi, I am a .signature virus. Please copy me into your ~/.signature and send me

After a month or so log in as root and do a rm / -rf. Or ask your

to my
knowledge, phonon is in need of a jack backend, as gstreamer, as
pulseaudio, or maybe through xine. and now that kde4 is almost on the brink, it
sounds logical to push it
as duct tape for phonon and jack, eh?
No, never. See the endless discussions on
kde-multimedia and lau.
KDE needs a multimedia-server/-framework [*]. jack is _not_ what kde
needs because jack does neither video nor decoding of compressed formats.
