The git project contains quick checks (scans) on ways to improve system stability when it comes to low latency and real-time applications. This can improve jack to where the buffer size can be as low as 128x2 for USB class 2 audio hardware using a pre-compiled low-latency kernel. Should be lower (64x2?) for a custom compiled real-time kernel.. Otherwise using standard kernel you might still have issues at 1024x2 with a busy system.

Pulseaudio notes:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/680817/jack-and-pulseaudio-multiple-sin…

Shows how to create multiple sinks and sources (with the jack/pulse module) so you can point things like Discord or Skype or whatnot at jack uniquely

Been fairly happy with the new features in 15 Beta 1... Beta 2 is apparently out:

## x.sh
xrandr --output DP-0 --scale-from 1920x1080 #--scale 0.5x0.5

## y.sh
xrandr --output DP-0 --scale-from 2560x1440

## z.sh
xrandr --output DP-0 --scale 1x1

Looks like the logic inside modern Intel CPUs are too aggressive in pre-loading cache data and forget to check security boundaries... loading data from kernel (or possible other code space) into a region that malicious code could have access too:

Good starting links for learning about dithering:

Remapping channels to/from other devices (examples): (remember pacmd)
# from XR18 to OSB (inputs)
load-module module-remap-source channels=2 [...]

The fork with features (branches) and one fix (already applied upstream to original project).

Two features:
* local icons (the TTF is open source, and not everybody will have internet access)
* two panels for Transitions and Panels

The upstream project maintainer will probably accept the feature pulls soon.
