You are wrong :) JACK is targeted at audio production and concentrates on low latency. It's also good for passing audio between applications. Pulseaudio comes from the "desktop" side and is built around allowing a bunch of applications to make *pling* or play some music. But Pulseaudio either is or will be able to use JACK as backend, hopefully allowing for peaceful coexistence of *pling*-makers and audio production ;) -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
