[05:27] <OvenWerks> alsa.seq.bridge has an internal parameter: disable_longname which seems to be set to 0 but I can't find a way to change it to 1
[05:28] <OvenWerks> I don't know if you have looked at midi names in the midi bridge in pipewire yet but here is an example:
[05:29] <OvenWerks> Midi-Bridge:Midi Through: playback_0 Midi Through Port-0
[05:29] <OvenWerks> That is the shortest port name on there
[05:30] <OvenWerks> I have a longer one:
[05:30] <OvenWerks> Midi-Bridge:Echo Digital Audio AudioFire12 v4-8- GUID 0014860268b568f1 at fw1-0- S400: playback_0  AudioFire12 MIDI 1
[05:30] <OvenWerks> It sure makes a mess of the carla patch bay
[21:22] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: I am realizing my PW switch needs to test if pw, pa, jack and/or wireplumber are installed and limit mode available accordingly.
[21:23] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: I am also realizing that I shoud be building /etc/ld.so.conf.d/pipewire-jack-x86_64-linux-gnu.conf on the fly.
[21:23] <OvenWerks> (rather than saving whatever I find and copying back when needed)
[21:24] <OvenWerks> 1 step forward and two steps back...
[22:37] <OvenWerks> It seems ls -d /usr/lib/*/pipewire*/ja*
[22:37] <OvenWerks> comes really close, just need to add a / on the end.
[22:38] <OvenWerks> I think that will catch distros for 32bit as well as those who just do /lib/ with no arch.
[22:57] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: I also suspect I can replace etc/ld.so.conf.d/pipewire-jack-x86_64-linux-gnu.conf with etc/ld.so.conf.d/pipewire-jack.conf
[22:59] <OvenWerks> When I want it removed, I can rm etc/ld.so.conf.d/pipewire-jack*.conf which will remove both whatever I might put in ther as well as whatever the package puts in there
