Re: [Jack-Devel] Installers for Jack 1.9.8 (SVN 4356) for Windows 64 and 32 bits

Stéphane,

Thanks for getting this posted.


Devin,

I tried using the alias names (e.g. "winmme:AudioFire4 MIDI:in2") and QJackCtl
showed the latency tester connecting to the ports.  However, it refused to run
the test, just sitting at "Waiting for connections ..." until I hit Ctrl-C.
Any ideas on that?

Anyway, here are the latest results.  It's a bit of a mixed bag compared with
the earlier test (4340 version).  Average latency is down, average jitter is
up.  My AudioFire4 is the only device on my Firewire bus and it's using the
latest Windows 7 Echo Audio driver.

Regards,

-- Peter
