Hi, After lots of trials and errors, an some of googling I figured out that jack audio output options can use regular expressions (eg: -ao jack:port=playback_[3-8]). And i think it is the only way to specify several ports. So I have a simple request: would it be possible to comment this possibility in mplayer man's pages ? Thanks

That is not an MPlayer-feature, MPlayer just uses jack_get_ports. Since I do not know which jack version behaves this might be better documented in the jack documentation... But I am of course not opposed to amending the MPlayer documentation, particularly is someone knows if that feature always existed and can point to the jack documentation that says what precisely is accepted there...

After looking briefly into jack svn, it seems jack_get_ports() is taking regexp patterns since commit r188 back in 2002, so I think a small note telling regexps are accepted is a safe assumption for pretty much every version of jack... _______________________________________________
