add a MTC backend output socket (alsa)

[cfirwin3]

With a simple midi timecode output socket that can be seen by alsa (no gui switches or rewrites needed) then LMMS would be able to drive midi timecode aware peripherals (like Xjadeo video player) in sync to lmms playback. This connection could be made from alsa connection gui or jack... NO gui changes or rewrites to LMMS needed! A simple midi output socket that would permit sync of this nature would open a world of opportunities for scoring music to picture (creating time accurate film score tracks, and slaving midi timecode aware software).

Just a backend output socket is needed for the LMMS midi timecode. It would be a small but extremely powerful addition.

Watch explanation here... Please hear me out!

I'm sorry, m so sorry ;( I'm agreeing you but LMMS can't be linked with any DAW even Audacity for processing samples and comfortable remix production. Unfortunately. Your method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrrfaEHfnec is certainly brilliant but crutch way. No one developer here can understand why it's needing. Everyone working hard above issues but has it coming hardly. Probably your request will be included into 1.3 development.
"I have a dream..." One of US president said it, not me. But I have a dream also; to link my Reaper and LMMS. It's not difficult but I'm not a programmer. Reaper has got MTC sync but my favorite LMMS hasn't...

We welcome a PR for this feature. Unless someone volunteers, this will be merged into #1472.

I wanna to add a little some... Not for ALSA only has got need this feature but it must be multiplatform implementation for all supported OS.

I wanna back again into this topic conversation. Can you tell me is it possible to control a playback in LMMS for Windows from another DAW? Specifically from the Reaper. The Reaper provides the ability to expand through scripts. I mentioned earlier that Reaper supports MTC, SPP, LTC syncronization by default. Is it fundamentally possible to do through scripts from Reaper? As far as I understand from the context, LMMS has other MIDI commands to control playback.

This low priority task also planned in #6066 (do not be confused by title - simply jack transport basic support is done, but code should be cleaned)
