It is a new implementation -of the JACK server core features that aims in removing some -limitations of the JACK1 design. The activation system has been -changed for a data flow model and lock-free programming techniques -for graph access have been used to have a more dynamic and -robust system. - -- jackdmp use a new client activation model that allows simultaneous -client execution (on a smp machine) when parallel clients exist -in the graph (client that have the same inputs). This activation model -allows to better use available CPU on a smp machine, but also works -on a mono-processor machine. - -- jackdmp use a lock-free way to access (read/write) the client graph, -thus allowing connections/disconnection to be done without -interrupting the audio stream. The result is that -connections/disconnections are glitch-free. - -- jackdmp can work in 2 different modes at the server level : - - synchronous activation : in a given cycle, the server waits for - all clients to be finished (similar to normal jackd) - - asynchronous activation : in a given cycle, the server does not - wait for all clients to be finished and use output buffer - computed the previous cycle. - -The audible result of this mode is that if a client is not activated -during one cycle, other clients may still run and the resulting audio -stream will still be produced (even if its partial in some way). -This mode usually result in fewer (less audible) audio glitches in a -loaded system. - -NOTE: this package conflicts with jack-audio-connection-kit: install -only one of the two. - -This package uses POSIX filesystem capabilities to execute with -elevated privileges (required for realtime audio processing). This -may be considered a security/stability risk. Please read -http://www.slackbuilds.org/caps/ for more information. To disable -capabilities, pass SETCAP=no to the script. - -Optional dependencies are celt, libffado and opus. |
