I'll use audio software such as Ardour with jackd, if I launch jackd with oss, there are only the two analog IOs of my HDSPe AIO available, ALSA doesn't work. I'll get the 8 ADAT ports, since I connect my sound card to an ADAT device. This is the sound card: http://www.rme-audio.de/en_products_hdspe_aio.php This is the connected ADAT device: http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/ADA8000.aspx Just for a test VLC would be ok. Ok, so I compile VLC and dependencies, that were not already compiled, with their default configuration. Some dependencies perhaps are already compiled.

When VLC is compiled, I'll read how to reset the config and compile it with it's defaults. For test purposes this is ok, but for audio production it's a no-go. FWIW I generally don't add pulseaudio support since environments with pulseaudio don't work with professional gear on Linux. Even if it should work on FreeBSD, the code is odd, since it will adjust 2 volumes in the same signal chain at the same time. An audio engineer doing this, never ever would get a job. This is not how audio signals are handled in the professional world, doing it that way is idiotic. To be continued. Regards, Ralf
