> http://www.telegraph-road.org/rosegarden/rosegarden-4-0.9.91rc2.tar.bz2 After installing RC2 on my gentoo box (it compiles without errors now :-), I have serious trouble with USB-MIDI: The first playback device seems to be broken (no MIDI output). With 0.9.9 there was no such problem. The problem is somwehat complex, and I don't know exactly what would be the expected behaviour in conjunction with qjackctl. But what I know is that after playing too much around, also the 2nd playback device has no sound no more, and a reboot of the box helps.
Environment =========== Program versions ---------------- Distro: Gentoo stable Kernel: gentoo-dev-sources 2.6.9-r4 RG: http://www.telegraph-road.org/rosegarden/rosegarden-4-0.9.91rc2.tar.bz2 alsa-lib 1.0.6 jack-audio-connection-kit: 0.99.0 qjackctl 0.2.9 vkeybd 0.1.15 Relevant Hardware ----------------- 2 x MidiSport 2x4, showing up as device 80 and 88; Playback device 1 is on 80:2 Playback device channel 1, (with omni on), 80:1 is not connected. Steps to reproduce ================== A) Test environment without RG ------------------------------ start qjackctl via Alt&F2 start vkeybd via Alt&F2 qjackctl: Connect Virtual KeyBoard to Playback Device: 129:0 Virtual Keyboard |- 0: Virtual Keyboard --to-- 80: MidiSpoirt 2x4 - Rawmidi 2 |- 2: MidiSport 2x4 MIDI 3 Play with the mouse on vkebd and have some limited amount of fun ;-) -> Anything OK up to now. B) Bring in RG -------------- start rosegarden via Alt&F2 -> RG shows up as Writeable Client 130:Rosegarden |- 0:Rosegarden input -> don't touch it, bring vkeybd to front Play with the mouse on vkebd and have no fun at all :-( -> Although still connected as in A), no sound on the Playback device. close RG -> RG disappears from qjackctl as expected. Play with the mouse on vkebd and have no fun at all :-( -> Although still connected as in A), no sound on the Playback device. C) Verify reproducability until now ----------------------------------- close vkeybd close qjackctl back to square A) -> Steps A) to B) seem to be (sometimes?) reproducable. It seems not always to be needed to restart jack. D) Deeper inquiry: bring in a second playback device ---------------------------------------------------- qjackctl: Connect Virtual KeyBoard to Playback Device 2: 129:0 Virtual Keyboard |- 0: Virtual Keyboard --to-- 80: MidiSpoirt 2x4 - Rawmidi 2 |- 2: MidiSport 2x4 MIDI 2 Switch Device 2 to MIDI Channel 1 (for vkeybd) Play with the mouse on vkebd and have some limited amount of fun ;-) -> Device 2 is OK, Device 1 still muted. E) Play around with RG ---------------------------------------------------- The 1st Device can never be used with existing compositions (no MIDI, no matter whether I start RG with jack or without jack), the 2nd device works for playback. -> Exchanging the 2 devices in RG. -> The 2nd Device still works, it seems that the 1st device listed in qjackctl gets broken (no Idea which ordering is relevant here). The more I play around with RG, the more devices I seem to loose (I have 3 of them). Before sending this mail, I had no sound no more of device 2, saved the .rg file, rebooted, had still no sound out of device 1 as before, but device 2 worked again. --> ??? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8 _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-devel
