netjack syncs the transport of the slave to the transport of the master.
however the problem of chuck not syncing to anything cant be solved by
this.

bad chuck.

there seems to be a small bug currently, which prevents the transport
from starting the first times. just press it a bit more often.

however it makes me a bit sad, that people still try to solve the
orgiginal intended use-case of netjack with kludges.

can you people please explain, why you never try netjack ?

its installed with any recent jack and its a matter of:
jack_netsource -h slave_name

jackd -R -d net

what is so complicated about this ?
