Ah, I thought I remembered something like that. That would work great
for me, the only thing I have plugged into the inputs on my soundcard is
the sound from my TV card, and I usually don't want to record from that
using JACK. How does it work internally? If one of the devices has a
clock that is slightly slower than the other, will jackd resample the
signal to make it as smooth as possible? Or will there be
discontinuities when jackd has to skip forward or backward in one of the
streams to catch up with the other?
