would be a better question for the Freebob list, and cc:
 the jackit-devel list, as you're using a version of JACK that the
 Freebob people have customized.  I've never heard anyone on LAD or LAU
 report that this works.

 First and foremost, we need to get the iec61883 driver into JACK CVS, so
 that Paul Davis and the other JACK experts can help you.

 In case some folks don't know this stuff iec61883 is part of the 1394
 stack. Why would it go into Jack CVS? 
Sorry, I mean "the iec61883 backend".  JACK used to call these
"drivers"
but as you can see it's confusing.  JACK does not need to include the
iec61883 stack but it does need to know how to talk to it, just like
with ALSA, OSS, etc.

Look at his command line:

jackd -d iec61883 -o osc.udp://localhost:31000

If I run this I get:

rlrevell@mindpipe:~/kernel-source/linux-2.6.13$ jackd -d iec61883
jackd: unknown driver 'iec61883'

So he must be using a third party patch to jackd from the Freebob people
that implements the 'iec61883' backend.
