I'm trying to configure my Conky build to display some qjackctl info such as set (not supposed) interface, samplerate, buffersize, nperiods as well as system messages and last xrun (which could also just be transport time since i have that set to time since last xrun) and I'm having trouble understanding where to safely and reliably get this from.
I tried jack_samplerate for instance, which works, but every time Conky queries this, qjackctl is pinged as if there is a patch bay change. lots of queries equals lots of patch bay change spam in my qjackctl messages window. Also, jack_* doesn't have all the info I need anyway.
I also tried looking around for various logs, but none really are the proper solution. Everything I do need is in the qjackctl messages/status window, so how can I reach those files to parse them and extract the info I need?
Thanks
re. qjackctl messages/status conky configuration
the messages log file is configured under Setup > Options > Logging, of course you set your own path.
if you run the jack d-bus enabled service you may also look into
~/.log/jack/jackdbus.log
(note that this also goes into qjackctl:Messages log too, whether applicable).byee
