Hello, I'm trying to use jack_set_xrun_callback to be notified in my application of eventual xrun. in the documentation of the function I see a note: that 'this function cannot be called while the client is activated'. Does it mean that my client must call jack_set_xrun_callback before being activated or that the callback cannot be called while client is activated? If it's the later than should I use another client that will stay not activated as parameter jack_client_t It says return 0 on success. Does it mean the callback must succeed doing something or can it just increase some counter and return 0. What would be the consequences of a non-zero error code? Would jack stop? Currently I'm registering the callback and then activate and use the client. I'm not sure if I get an xrun that does crash my application of if something wrong in the application makes it crash and trigger an xrun... Chicken and egg problem. Is there another way?
