@falktx Do you think it'd be possible to have Carla restore centain connections when they are severed?
The use case I am working on right now is - my audio I/F or MIDI keyboard like to disappear and require to be power-cycled and I am using Carla to process audio fro streaming and recording videos.
I am now using jack_connect commands executed in a loop to make sure these connections are restored when hardware disappears, but I am having trouble with some ports that have very long names.
@falktx Oh, I solved my problem. But having an option in Carla to restore specific connections in case they are broken would be awesome nonetheless :)
@unfa tbh I think that is a tool for something other than carla. it only happens with jack, when carla runs its own patchbay the audio IO is not supposed to go away..
so I think this is a generic issue, not something to carla. and as such, it should be solved in a generic way, not inside carla.
stuff like https://github.com/guysherman/jack-passthrough/ is an option, though it needs something else to actively monitor and connect things when they reappear. surely something for that already exists.
