    This is a bug in the 1.0.2 live CD; for a workaround, see here:

    > As a side note (seeing I can't get it working to see for myself) can I have multiple playlists playing at the same time through different outputs. I have a Delta 1010LT and I'm figuring LiveSupport is what I need to get a play different scheduled playlists out different channels. Can it do it? If not then I've come to the wrong place.

    The scheduler can only output to one device at a time; you need to stop
    and restart the scheduler to change the device.

    You can, of course, run several instances of the scheduler independently
    of each other, all with their own audio devices (though you'll need to
    manually edit config files to do this). This has not been tested, but
    it should work.

    With the normal configuration, you can have a scheduled playlist playing
    on one device, another playing in "live mode" on another, and a third
    one in "cue" (or preview) mode on a third device, all at the same time.

  • Thanks, that did the trick.

    I really need to install Linux again to give this a good go and Knoppix doesn't seem to let me use Jack. Without Jack my Delta 1010LT can only open one audio app at a time and that gets me nowhere.
