Would a warp disruptor be enough to stop a capital from jumping? |

The same mechanics that govern regular warping also govern jump drives.
This means that a single frigate CAN pin down a dreadnought or carrier. However, supercapitals are another story and require AoE warp disruption fields or focused "infini-points" from HICs to keep them from warping.

This is why when a couple of frigs come across a super capital loping along, they start screaming, "Bring in a HIC! Bring in a HIC! Who's got a HIC!" (and, other exclamations such as these.)
There just isn't anything that can be said!

Of course, super-capitals are losing their EWAR immunity this spring.

Yes, titans can be tackled by enough Rifters, or jammed by enough Falcons. We've got some interesting mechanics for this and I'll go through them one by one -
Warping: Supercarriers and Titans will have an innate warp strength of around 20 to 50. We haven't locked these numbers in and we'd love to hear from you on what you think is appropriate. Heavy Interdictors with a focus point will work as they do now, as will bubbles.
ECM / Tracking Disruptions / Sensor Dampeners / Target Painters: We're introducing a new attribute 'Electronic Warfare Resistance'. If your ship has 50% Electronic Warfare Resistance, any electronic warfare modules will be 50% less effective on the target. In the specific case of ECM, this takes effect before the roll against Sensor Strength is done. So it is possible to Jam / Disrupt / Damp a Titan...but for best results you should use bonused ships. Force Auxiliaries going into Triage and Dreadnoughts going into Siege could have their Electronic Warfare Resistance attribute set very high, but they won't be un-counterable.
Stasis Webifying: We're introducing a new attribute 'Webifying Resistance' and it works the same as Electronic Warfare Resistance. |

Do you include jump freighters in that "The same mechanics that govern regular warping also govern jump drives."? |

so what exactly is the line regarding point (warp disrupting) a jump freigther Does that stop them from cyno jumping? |

It has been said several times already , yes a warp disruptor stops a jump freighter from jumping to a cyno.
A case for more AoE in EvE

Consider jump drives as massive warp engines. So massive, they do not require gates to go from system to system.
So yes... a single warp disruptor can prevent a capital from utilizing its jump drive.
Hilti Enaka wrote:so what exactly is the line regarding point (warp disrupting) a jump freigther Does that stop them from cyno jumping? The warp/jump mechanics are pretty binary.
Every ship has a warp strength of 1. If a ship has a warp strength of 0 or less then it can't warp or jump. If a ship has a warp strength of 1 or higher then it can warp or jump (hint: warp core stabilizers can bump up the warp strength above 1)
Based on the questions you are asking OP, it sounds like you are trying to understand how to use a Jump Freighter.
Here is some advice; When you undock you have a 60 second "invulnerability period" where nothing can affect you (as long as you activate nothing and make no manual course correction). You also have a 15 second "session change" timer (because the server is basically making sure you are where you are supposed to be).
This means you have about 45 seconds to have someone (or an alt character) light a cyno at your destination system and jump to it before someone is able to apply a warp disruptor you and prevent from jumping.

actually trying to understand the jump mechanic of jf if i want to tackle one.

Oh.
In that case... a single frigate with a warp disruptor is enough to doom a Jump Freighter that isn't next to a station.

why do many people think that it is all cap related? |

In order to perform a jump, the capital pilot must have... - their total capacitor power at 71% of max or higher (this can be ignored if one is simply undocking) - be in fleet with the person/character that is lighting the "destination" cyno - warp strength of 1 or higher
Capacitor only comes into play during capital operations... which normally involves combat capable capitals.
