sound/midi in jack should really be disabled, or
made it possible to choose. Midi autoconnects
with all clients, and we have to 'disconnect
all' before patching as desired. Same with
sound: sometimes, I use pd to make sound in a
basic way, and just output on channels 1 - 2,
but most of the time, I use it as a plugin, or
inserted between several other
jack-applications, with particular jack patches.
The patchbay from qjackctl save my desired
connection, and I should only start my apps and
let the connections make themselves. The patch
is the power of jack, and autoconnect goes
against this philosophy. Also, maybe one day pd
will be compatible with ladish/jack-session (the
future of jack!).
I rarely use Jack, and know little about it. I think
you're best bet is to bring this up in its own thread or
submit a bug report on it.
you mean a bug report for pd-ext? which thread?
If its been discussed many times, I say its ready for a bug
report. Please put links to the discussions in the bug
report, if you can.
