JACK_NETSOURCE(1)	    General Commands Manual	     JACK_NETSOURCE(1)

NAME
       jack_netsource -	Netjack	Master client for one slave

SYNOPSIS
       jack_netsource [	-H hostname ] [	options	]

DESCRIPTION
       jack_netsource  The Master side of a netjack connection.	Represents the
       slave jackd -dnet in the	master jack graph.  Most connection parameters
       are configured via the netsource, and the slave will set	itself up  ac-
       cording to the commandline option given to jack_netsource.
       Netjack	allows low latency audio connections over general IP networks.
       When using opus for compression,	 it  is	 even  possible	 to  establish
       transatlantic links, with latencies not much over the actual ping time.
       But  the	main usecase is	of course a LAN, where it can achieve one jack
       period of latency.

OPTIONS
       -h this help text

       -H slave	host
	      Host name	of the slave JACK

       -o num channels
	      Number of	audio playback channels

       -i num channels
	      Number of	audio capture channels

       -O num channels
	      Number of	midi playback channels

       -I num channels
	      Number of	midi capture channels

       -n periods
	      Network latency in JACK periods

       -p port
	      UDP port that the	slave is listening on

       -r reply	port
	      UDP port that we are listening on

       -B bind port
	      reply port, for use in NAT environments

       -b bitdepth
	      Set transport to use 16bit or 8bit

       -P kbits
	      Use Opus encoding	with <kbits> per channel

       -m mtu
	      Assume this mtu for the link

       -R N
	      Redundancy: send out packets N times.

       -e
	      skip host-to-network endianness conversion

       -N jack name
	      Reports a	different client name to jack

       -s, --server servername
	      Connect to the jack server named servername

       -h, --help
	      Display help/usage message

       -v, --version
	      Output version information and exit

EXAMPLES
       run a 4 audio channel bidirectional link	with one period	of latency and
       no midi channels. Audio data is flowing uncompressed over the wire:
       On hostA:

	      jackd -d alsa
	      jack_netsource -H	hostB -n1 -i4 -o4 -I0 -O0

       On hostB:

	      jackd -d net
