Target Dante Virtual Soundcard #696

Open marijncin opened 3 years ago

Would it be possible to target Dante Virtual Soundcard from Jack PortAudio? for streaming jack system output directly to a Dante network?

dvzrv commented 3 years ago

@marijncin to my understanding this is out-of-scope for jack2, as it really depends on your operating system and the drivers that are made available by either Audinate or any sub licensee. As the drivers are usually all closed-source and heavily patented, I guess the best answer at this point is "maybe?".

@dvzrv That's unfortunate. It makes a lot of sense that it is out of scope. So the best way would be a hardware interface with Dante output and an asio driver i presume?

@dvzrv I found this: https://www.merging.com/products/merging_audio_device an ASIO Driver that outputs aes67. Do you think this could work with Jack?

@marijncin see #40

Also you can find this kind of product, working through alsa : https://www.digigram.com/support/lx-dante-support/

Not sure if I'm missing something, but on operating systems that DVS is available for, it should be possible to use it as a regular (system) input/output to jack, like one would with any soundcard.
