USB Stick not working

    I followed the instructions and have files on the USB stick (see screenshot attached). I have no idea what "Probe you hardware and configure it with easy configuration steps" Means. I am using a new Dell G-5 PC i7 512 SSD running Windows 10 with Scarlet 2i2 Gen 3 and the Scarlet ASIO driver, FIBE internet 50gig speed ethernet connection. I can use Jamulus on other servers with on issues, but am trying to set up a server for a group of noobs and the delay is 25 just for myself. I have the server and the Jamulus progam on the same computer and will be putting the server on another computer today, but I was hoping the USB stick approach would shave latency.

    Hello Daniel,

    Please note that Jamulus OS v1 is not supported anymore.

    If you follow the steps mentioned in the wiki ( https://sourceforge.net/p/jamulus-os/wiki/ ) , you should boot and start Jamulus OS (A Linux operating system). Once done please consult the video howto to know what to do. ( https://sourceforge.net/p/jamulus-os/wiki/HOW-TO/ )

    BR,
    Laurent

    Thanks Laurent. I am guessing that the version I have of Jamulus 3.602 is version 2. To be clear, I have Jamulus set up and working. Been using it successfully for a few weeks now. I set up a public server that has a +25 delay time with just me on the server and I am trying to reduce that delay time. I am attempting to set up a bootable USB to, hopefully reduce the delay time. I followed the instructions and used Rufus. But the stick does not boot. I used ISO to USB writer as well and the stick does not boot. I've watched the"How to know if my hardware is good enough" video, but how do I get the "hardware settings for Jamulus" icon that is clicked on at the beginning of the of the vid? (see attached screenshot) I can't find it in my computer's settings nor in Jamulus settings.

    Ok, I think I see my issue. I need to set up Linux to make the USB stick work.

      Not exactly you need to setup your USB stick with Jamulus OS on it as described in the wiki steps (a few steps) and then boot your computer on your USB Stick.

      In other words, you won't use Windows 10 anymore to start Jamulus server and Jamulus client if you use Jamulus OS.

      Jamulus OS is a Linux OS. Your sound card has to be compatible. The windows compatibility does not imply that your sound card is Linux compatible.

        Thanks again.
        I am still stuck at the "probe" instruction. I have written the Jamulus ISO
        to my USB drive using two programs Rufus and ISO to USB. I restarted my
        computer, but Jamulus does not start. Again, I have been using Jamulus
        successfully for a few week now connecting and playing with other musicians
        all over North America. My hardware and software work well. I just can't
        seem to get this bootable stick to work!

        And that is my problem. Focusrite is not compatible with Linux. Thanks

    To boot on your USB stick, you have to tell your computer that you want to do so.

    Usually you do it using a keyboard shortcut at the start of your computer. (Look at the screen for some information about the key to press to access BIOS). Then go to boot menu and adapt it to your need.

    Your Scarlett 2i2 3rd gen should work on Linux because it is class compliant.

      Thanks Laurent, but this has become much too complicated and time-consuming
      for me. If my public server doesn't work well with my band (4 people)
      there are lots of servers that are usually available during the day.
