[campcaster-support] Campcaster with Jack

Hi,

I've been trying hard to get Campcaster running with Jack Audio. No luck
so far! These are the things that I've tried:

**** Set up a /etc/asound.conf :

pcm.jackplug {
type plug
slave { pcm "jack" }
}

pcm.jack {
type jack
playback_ports {
0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
1 alsa_pcm:playback_2
}
capture_ports {
0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
1 alsa_pcm:capture_2
}
}

Then start jack: jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:0 -r44100 -p1024 -n2

Then set the cue and live output devices in Campcaster-studio to
"jackplug". This gives an error saying that the device jackplug does not
exist. I even tried with "default" and "hw:0,0", but it says that the
device is already in use.

**** Then I tried to run it through artsdsp. So, I first start jack:
jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:0 -r44100 -p1024 -n2

Then, artsd: : artsd -F 15 -S 128 -r 44100 -a jack -d

Then: artsdsp -m campcaster-studio. Note that campcaster-studio is
actually started through a script and artsdsp only works for binaries.
So, I edited the script to start campcaster-studio through artsdsp.

And then I again tried with different device settings in
Campcaster-studio, including "/dev/dsp". But it keeps saying that the
device is already in use.

**** Then I even tried going the gstreamer route. I installed
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad, changed the Autoaudiosink for gstreamer to
jackaudiosink through gconf-editor, and created a .jack.plumbing file as
given in: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-554457.html

This whole thing works perfectly for rhythmbox -- I am able to play
rhythmbox through jack by starting jack.plumbing. But it doesn't work
for Campcaster, no matter what kind of sound device I specify for the
cue and live outputs.

Any ideas? I really need to get Campcaster running through jack! Please
help
