Description

Don't know if this is even possible, jack's documentation is so bad that I have no idea if this is doable without rearchitecting jack.

For interfaces like the MoTU 828 MkII that have multiple types of interfaces (eg, analog, ADAT, mic) it would be really helpful to have the port's name make it all the way to Ardour.

The port names are in the code, but I don't see them hit Jack at all.

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to invalid.

The port names are propagated to jack. However jack replaces them with the generic system:* names in order to improve portability of sessions. The ffado provided names are still available as "aliases". jack_lsp -A will list them.

This is not a ffado issue, but a jack design decision.
