Hi list,
I'm know this has been asked a thousand times already but could
someone please point me in the direction of instructions to enable
non-jack applications (like vlc) to work concurrently with jack? The
well-known situation is that jack "hogs" audio and makes other
applications unusable. How to get around this?
Many thanks,
Peter
As you mention vlc, note that many multimedia players feature a jack
audio output plugin. In the case of vlc (and in debian-based distros at
least) this doesn't work by default but you have to install a separate
package, "vlc-plugin-jack" (and then enable jack in the audio preferences).
