I'm trying to record from a radio plugged in to the line-in jack on my pc, whilst listening to music files playing on Amarok. To do this, I've started playing with jackd, but whenever I start it up with 'jackd -d alsa' I get errors: "the playback device "hw:0" is already in use. Please stop the application using it and run JACK again". And if I start up jackd, Amarok won't start - obviously both wanting to exclusive control over alsa.
Can I use jackd at the same time as something like Amarok? Is jackd the right way to do something like this? (BTW, I can hear and toggle on/off sound input from both pcm (ie Amarok) and line using alsactl.
