JackPilot is ugly. JackControl and JackPanel are pretty.

Was digging around jackosx cvs and I came across a bunch of quality gui stuff that doesn't seem to be in the usual jackosx download. Had to update the xcode settings to intel, then figure out the preference pane would only work as superuser, then install an included framework for the cool panel to work. I didn't get the menu agent working and it seems some graphics are bust. But checkout this awesome interface called JackPanel (similar to audio midi utility)...










And here's the PreferencePane, JackControl...

A2DP Working In OSX 10.4

My Ipod was stolen from my car in Sydney (with ipod a2dp adapter), and I broke my XDA II on a liftchair at the snow (with a2dp compatible bluetooth stack). I was without a device capable of transmitting A2DP (bluetooth stereo audio) to my rad headset - the Motorola DJ S805. Oh No!

So I revisited an opensource a2dp client for OSX over on David Connolly's blog. Like many moons ago, it only worked a little bit. But then I decided to try and tweak it and found a secret argument to the command line program.

Now it works perfectly! And I can aggregate audio from my PS3, 360 and Wii through my Mac Mini to my headset! Audio Extreme!

... Update: Leopard (10.5) supports stereo bluetooth!  Woo! But Jack broke and AVRCP isn't working. But still, Woo!
