Keep JACK Outputs Opened All the Time
I'd like to use OMP with JACK and connect it to ports other than the hardware playback ports which OMP connects to by default, but everytime a new track is played back, the OMP ports reconnect to the hp ports, more specific: The OMP ports are closed when the music stops and reopened when the music starts. To use OMP in the way I need it, I would have to delete an reconnect all OMP ports manually everytime when a new track is played back.
It would be much better to have OMP open it's JACK ports on startup and closing them on shutdown.
Hmmm, okay. That's an interesting issue. I only tested ALSA and PulseAudio. I didn't test JACK output. I just added it as an output option, but I will definitely look into this problem as soon as I can.
Yes. It's because this value of the GStreamer element for JACK output is by default set to switch to physical ports. I just need to provide a configuration option to change it. I plan to before the release of the first code-stable build. I need to research JACK more and use it myself because I don't understand how it works and I have never used it. I provided the initial JACK support more as an untested proof-of-concept.
