[Bug 793798] Re: Ardour defaults to half the frames/period of Jack (9.11)

 

Upon further investigation I found that in Ardour's Jack latency menu,
the "frames/period" DO in fact match up with the number in qjackctl.
What showed a confusing half-value was Ardour's "output latency" display
(always half the milliseconds shown in Jack).   The XRUNS I saw were
probably just due to Ardour requiring twice the latency of other jack
programs.  So, to me, this behavior is actually not a bug.  Nothing to
fix.

However, there was another Ardour latency-related bug in 9.11 that was
fixed in Ardour 2.8.8 (http://ardour.org/node/3384).  So, as long as
Gazpacho uses at least 2.8.8, should be good.

Title:
  Ardour defaults to half the frames/period of Jack (9.11)

Status in Puredyne liveCD/DVD/USB/HD:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  NOTE: APPLIES TO Puredyne 9.11

  Even with Jack operating perfectly, opening a project in Ardour
  results in Ardour defaulting to half the "Latency" (frames/period)
  value that Jack is set at.  This always produces XRUNS for me.

  An easy work-around is changing Ardour's latency value
  (Jack-->Latency-->[value]) to match Jack's frame/period or greater.
  This ALWAYS prevents XRUNS from Ardour (aside from some Ardour/LADSPA-
  specific bugs).

  As a side note, that this problem does not exist on Ubuntu Studio 9.10
  which also has Ardour 2.8.2, so this is why I consider it a Puredyne-
  specific bug.
