I will try and get it down using some of the hints given in this thread.
I am launching the programs via .desktop files in .config/autostart
including
the:
sh -c "sleep ..." trick
I start x11vnc right away
I start qjackctl after 15 seconds
this launches darkice after startup via a script
it also has the patchbay activated to make the wanted connections
I am assuming the jackdbus settings (and connections) are pretty static
and would think that jack_command might be better than having qjackctl
hanging around where someone might play with it. It would take a bit of
learning and to be sure it is doing what you want may take more than just
jack_command start, but anything qjackctl can do can be done CLI. I don't
expect a control room operator to be a computer admin. (not in any
TV/radio station I've worked in) jack.plumbing from the jack-tools package
might make your auto connection stuff work well too. (I shouldn't have to
say this, but do test these things on a spare machine running the same
HW/SW as your on-air box)
Right now, this is a test setup for a project what will hopefully go live in
the fall.
I haven't run rivendell on a daily basis for years so this is largely a
re-learning project at this point.
I am just trying to get things working at this point. After that, I will try
and clean things up as you suggest.
I may also switch to liquidsoap from darkice. we shall see.
all the best,
drew
