Problem with JACK over network on Win10

Open halbius opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug

I am running two machines with Win10. Last time I used JACK a few months ago I had both machines connected with JACK via networked, everything worked fine. For setup I followed this guide But the machines don't connect anymore. Jack seems to start, but on the slave it says "Waiting for Master"

Environment

  • JACK Version: JACK 1.9.22
  • Operating System: Windows 10 Pro, Audiointerface RME Fireface (Master)
  • Installation: binary from the JACK homepage

Steps To Reproduce

On the master I start Jack via qJackCtl. In the setup in the options tab I use 'jack_load netmanager' in the "Execute script after startup". It starts and I can connect applications. On the slave I start jack via qJackCtl, selecting "net" as driver. I also tried "netone" but it says

netjack-poll not implemented
Waiting aborted
Initing net driver fails

The network itself works fine, I can access both machines via ping and other stuff like file exchange, kvm, etc. For jackd.exe I added firewall rules allowing all protocols and ports in both directions on both machines.

Then I saw there are some error messages in qJackCtl at startup:

Drivers/internals found in : C:\Program Files\JACK2
jack_get_descriptor : dll jack_inprocess.dll is not a driver
jack_get_descriptor returns null for 'jack_inprocess.dll'
jack_get_descriptor : dll jack_internal_metro.dll is not a driver
jack_get_descriptor returns null for 'jack_internal_metro.dll'
jack_get_descriptor : dll jack_intime.dll is not a driver
jack_get_descriptor returns null for 'jack_intime.dll'
Drivers/internals found in : C:\Program Files\JACK2
JACK server starting in realtime mode with priority 10

JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1, skipping unlock
jack_deactivate called with a NULL client
jack_deactivate called with a NULL client
jack_client_close called with a NULL client

It does not seem to have any effect on Jack working, as other apps are recognized by JACK and I can connect them. I found out that others had the same problem (for example https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/issues/937). I tried all the solutions, but nothing helped. Don't know if this has anything to do with the net problem?

I desperately hope anyone can help me getting this network stuff working again...?

Expected vs. actual behavior

Last time I used this setup everything workes fine, I could connect both machines. But now for some reason it does not work anymore
