doc: make all manpages with Doxygen
Use (fixed-up) Doxygen manpage output for all program & module manpages. This also allows formatting the manual pages properly in the HTML docs. The Markdown pages work properly only with Doxygen >= 1.9.7, older versions put them to wrong place in the HTML docs.

# DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
**pw-cat** is a simple tool for playing back or capturing raw or encoded
|
||||
media files on a PipeWire server. It understands all audio file formats
|
||||
supported by `libsndfile` for PCM capture and playback. When capturing
|
||||
PCM, the filename extension is used to guess the file format with the
|
||||
WAV file format as the default.
|
||||
|
||||
It understands standard MIDI files for playback and recording. This tool
|
||||
will not render MIDI files, it will simply make the MIDI events
|
||||
available to the graph. You need a MIDI renderer such as qsynth,
|
||||
timidity or a hardware MIDI rendered to hear the MIDI.
|
||||
|
||||
DSD playback is supported with the DSF file format. This tool will only
|
||||
work with native DSD capable hardware and will produce an error when no
|
||||
such hardware was found.
|
||||
|
||||
When the *FILE* is - input and output will be raw data from STDIN and
|
||||
STDOUT respectively.
|
||||
|
||||
# OPTIONS
|
||||
|
||||
\par -h | \--help
|
||||
Show help.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--version
|
||||
Show version information.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -v | \--verbose
|
||||
Verbose operation.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -R | \--remote=NAME
|
||||
The name the *remote* instance to connect to. If left unspecified, a
|
||||
connection is made to the default PipeWire instance.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -p | \--playback
|
||||
Playback mode. Read data from the specified file, and play it back. If
|
||||
the tool is called under the name **pw-play** or **pw-midiplay** this is
|
||||
the default.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -r | \--record
|
||||
Recording mode. Capture data and write it to the specified file. If the
|
||||
tool is called under the name **pw-record** or **pw-midirecord** this is
|
||||
the default.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -m | \--midi
|
||||
MIDI mode. *FILE* is a MIDI file. If the tool is called under the name
|
||||
**pw-midiplay** or **pw-midirecord** this is the default. Note that this
|
||||
program will *not* render the MIDI events into audible samples, it will
|
||||
simply provide the MIDI events in the graph. You need a separate MIDI
|
||||
renderer such as qsynth, timidity or a hardware renderer to hear the
|
||||
MIDI.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -d | \--dsd
|
||||
DSD mode. *FILE* is a DSF file. If the tool is called under the name
|
||||
**pw-dsdplay** this is the default. Note that this program will *not*
|
||||
render the DSD audio. You need a DSD capable device to play DSD content
|
||||
or this program will exit with an error.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--media-type=VALUE
|
||||
Set the media type property (default Audio/Midi depending on mode). The
|
||||
media type is used by the session manager to select a suitable target to
|
||||
link to.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--media-category=VALUE
|
||||
Set the media category property (default Playback/Capture depending on
|
||||
mode). The media type is used by the session manager to select a
|
||||
suitable target to link to.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--media-role=VALUE
|
||||
Set the media role property (default Music). The media type is used by
|
||||
the session manager to select a suitable target to link to.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--target=VALUE
|
||||
\parblock
|
||||
Set a node target (default auto). The value can be:
|
||||
|
||||
- **auto**: Automatically select (Default)
|
||||
|
||||
- **0**: Don't try to link this node
|
||||
|
||||
- <b>\<id\></b>: The object.serial or the node.name of a target node
|
||||
\endparblock
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--latency=VALUE\[*units*\]
|
||||
\parblock
|
||||
Set the node latency (default 100ms)
|
||||
|
||||
The latency determines the minimum amount of time it takes for a sample
|
||||
to travel from application to device (playback) and from device to
|
||||
application (capture).
|
||||
|
||||
The latency determines the size of the buffers that the application will
|
||||
be able to fill. Lower latency means smaller buffers but higher
|
||||
overhead. Higher latency means larger buffers and lower overhead.
|
||||
|
||||
Units can be **s** for seconds, **ms** for milliseconds, **us** for
|
||||
microseconds, **ns** for nanoseconds. If no units are given, the latency
|
||||
value is samples with the samplerate of the file.
|
||||
\endparblock
|
||||
|
||||
\par -P | \--properties=VALUE
|
||||
Set extra stream properties as a JSON object.
|
||||
|
||||
\par -q | \--quality=VALUE
|
||||
Resampler quality. When the samplerate of the source or destination file
|
||||
does not match the samplerate of the server, the data will be resampled.
|
||||
Higher quality uses more CPU. Values between 0 and 15 are allowed, the
|
||||
default quality is 4.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--rate=VALUE
|
||||
The sample rate, default 48000.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--channels=VALUE
|
||||
The number of channels, default 2.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--channel-map=VALUE
|
||||
The channelmap. Possible values include: **mono**, **stereo**,
|
||||
**surround-21**, **quad**, **surround-22**, **surround-40**,
|
||||
**surround-31**, **surround-41**, **surround-50**, **surround-51**,
|
||||
**surround-51r**, **surround-70**, **surround-71** or a comma separated
|
||||
list of channel names: **FL**, **FR**, **FC**, **LFE**, **SL**, **SR**,
|
||||
**FLC**, **FRC**, **RC**, **RL**, **RR**, **TC**, **TFL**, **TFC**,
|
||||
**TFR**, **TRL**, **TRC**, **TRR**, **RLC**, **RRC**, **FLW**, **FRW**,
|
||||
**LFE2**, **FLH**, **FCH**, **FRH**, **TFLC**, **TFRC**, **TSL**,
|
||||
**TSR**, **LLFR**, **RLFE**, **BC**, **BLC**, **BRC**
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--format=VALUE
|
||||
The sample format to use. One of: **u8**, **s8**, **s16** (default),
|
||||
**s24**, **s32**, **f32**, **f64**.
|
||||
|
||||
\par \--volume=VALUE
|
||||
