OvenWerksEickmeyer: no problems here so far... has it gone into the backports?15:40
OvenWerksEickmeyer: sorry... "it" = studio-controls15:48
OvenWerksbringing pipewire will change things a lot. I think for my sanity I need first to add a use pipewire button to tweaks (similar to use ffado)16:24
OvenWerksthis is because my audio device will not work very well with pipewire.16:25
OvenWerksThe next step is to disable pulse bridging if pw is replacing pulse and almost everything else if it is also doing jack.16:29
OvenWerksThe next step is to use the jack master tab to control pw such that the master device in pw is named system and has the defined rate, latency etc.16:32
OvenWerksThe network tab should still work in all these cases I think.16:34
OvenWerksThe extra devices tab while mostly useless, would allow changing the device names and number of ports. headphones might still have some relevence. blacklist, if I can make it work ;)16:42
OvenWerksThe way pw port naming works would allow taking a multi port device and splitting it into smaller devices. So ports 9-10 could be system:playback_1 and 2... hmm that might replace pulse bridging.16:46
OvenWerksI might need to learn how to rename tabs16:46
OvenWerksBTW just thinking out loud16:47
* OvenWerks wanders off for the next few hours16:47
OvenWerksin the long run, pulse will vanish. for most people jack will as well but for some jack will remain an important part of their setup.17:26
OvenWerksThe reality is that studio-controls is not aimed at people who will use jack as their only audio server, it is aimed at those who will switch to pw.17:28
OvenWerksSo future focus should be making pw as jack like as possible. Using jack as a pw device is a special case... 17:31
OvenWerksor  not. if setting up pw-jack bridges turns out to be similar to pa-jack bridging maybe not.17:33
EickmeyerOvenWerks: I haven't put it into backports yet.18:11
EickmeyerThe rest of that seems like a good roadmap.18:11
EickmeyerOvenWerks: So, if you think it's good enough for backports I can do that since this isn't really a major release, unless you think otherwise.18:27
OvenWerksputting it in backports is basically the only way to get it tested beyond our two systems...21:58
EickmeyerFair.22:04
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Ok, uploaded to backports for both focal and impish.22:09
