Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;m trying to build a recorder that makes a 24 hour long audio recording, with multiple channels.  So far, I can start jackd:</div><div><br></div><div>$sudo jackd -d firewire </div><div><br></div>

<div>and start ecasound:</div><div><br></div><div>$sudo ecasound -a:1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 -f:s16_le,8,44100 -i jack,system -a:1 -o channelone.mp3 -a:2 -o channeltwo.mp3 -a:3 -o channelthree.mp3 -a:4 -o channelfour.mp3 -a:5 -o channelfive.mp3 -a:6 -o channelsix.mp3 -a:7 -o channelseven.mp3 -a:8 -o channeleight.mp3</div>
<div><br></div><div>...this starts recording without problems.  However, when I stop recording by issuing ctrl-c to ecasound and then start recording again, the files created now have zero bytes.  If I stop and restart the jack server, then recording works normally.  I would expect ecasound to overwrite the files and record new files; why must I restart jackd for audio to be recorded?  Thanks for any info.</div>
