that said, it would be awesome to merge your hack Paul.
i can vaguely remember something about that from you a year ago or
so, but i also remember you also recalled and scrapped it the next
day, so nothing was patched yet :(
i didn't pass it on because i started to get some crashes with qjc that
i hadn' t had before.
is there any plans for (re)posting the "qjackctl pretty-name
metadata patch" or whatever it's called?
it is a pretty deep change (i threw out all support for JACK port
aliases). but i will post it at some point because i don't have time to
figure out the nature of the (very occasional) crash (yet)
jack port aliases *should* be deprecated. it is a mechanism that should
never have seen the light of day.
there's the "jack port aliases" and there's the "qjackctl
client/port
aliases". they are two different things and orthogonal. the later is what i
believe may be integrated with the "jack pretty-name metatada" interface.
