BrianHechinger[m | Eickmeyer @Eickmeyer:libera.chat: ugh, i give up. This is a mess. Running that stuff you tell me to results in an empty grub menu. Now boot-repair fixes it but it kernel panics. I'm just doing a fresh install. 😠| 11:26 |

BrianHechinger[m | OvenWerks: Where does studio-controls save its config? | 13:21 |
BrianHechinger[m | never mind, I found it | 13:30 |
OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: the autojack config file gets rewritten every time a device change is detected as well as at startup. | 15:33 |
OvenWerks | This is aside from when the user makes changes :) | 15:33 |
BrianHechinger[m | I was asking because my pulse bridges were all gone. | 16:38 |
BrianHechinger[m | thought maybe that wasn't saved in my home dir (which made no sense, but just checking) | 16:39 |
OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: why version of studio-controls? try 2.3.5 | 17:03 |
BrianHechinger[m | 2.3.1 is what's installed but I haven't enabled backports yet | 17:05 |
BrianHechinger[m | I don't think | 17:05 |
OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: I have "toyed" with the idea of splitting the config and the device data into two files. I have not done so because some of the data in the device section is user settable | 17:06 |
OvenWerks | At this very moment I have just thought that it would still be ok to have some parts of the device data in config and other variable parts in a second file. More thought required :) | 17:07 |
OvenWerks | The whole problem is with things like USB microphones which are often the exact same device. | 17:09 |
OvenWerks | And, even though the USB 2 spec does include a device serial number, very few audio device manufactures have a serial number other 0 | 17:10 |
OvenWerks | Even devices made by more than one manufacture often have the same device name ( "Device" is quite popular) so I have to look for the ID (manufacture, model) and the physical usb port it is plugged into. | 17:12 |
OvenWerks | So what might be Device at one boot, might be Device_1 at next. I take them all and call them USB1, USB2, etc. on the user side. where USB1 always has the same model and usb port. | 17:14 |
OvenWerks | so if the user plugs it into a different usb port we see it as a different device :) | 17:15 |
OvenWerks | But if someone does pod casts with three mics, they can label the ports on their computer and know what they will be when they mix. | 17:19 |
BrianHechinger[m | That's so annoying. It's too bad they never had a settable field as part of the standard. | 18:21 |
OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: when the cost of the USB device is $5 asking for much of anything more than sound out is already a stretch. A lot of USB mics are the same price as the same non-usb mic... | 23:17 |
