Some properties don't have type info and then we want to skip
constructing the pod instead of crashing. This makes it possible to
cut and paste the output of pw-dump Route into pw-cli s <card> Route,
for example.
Add an entry in the config file for default format and channel map.
Use the defaults in the server_info request
Use the defaults for the default channels and map in the modules.
priority.session is meant to be used to set routing priorities.
priority.driver is meant to be used by the scheduler to select what
nodes is best for driving the graph. This usually depends on the
hardware quality and the use case (Pro Audio devices are likely
to be used as driving the graph).
See #1028
Make it possible to use object.id, node.name, node.nick,
node.description and object.path to select nodes and object.id,
port.name, port.alias and object.path to select ports when linking.
This makes it possible to use pw-cli creat-link to make nodes
without having to deal with the ids.
This results in always drawing edges with 90-degree angles instead of
smooth splines. Graphs laid out this way may be look nicer sometimes,
but it is slower to lay out with large graphs.
When setting a new default sink/source, use the name of the object
instead of the name used for selecting the sink/source. This makes
it possible to use the id to search for the device but still have
the device name in the metadata as is expected.
Fixes#1004
source and sink need not be set and need to be mapped to the target
source/sink to connect to.
node.group needs to be a unique id shared by source/sink to make them
part of the same scheduling group and do clock sync.
Remove some unused properties
If the node.autoconnect property is set in the stream.properties,
ignore the AUTOCONNECT flag value. This makes it possible to
force AUTOCONNECT either way.
See #964
Use the PIPEWIRE_AUTOCONNECT environment variable to set the value
of the NODE_AUTOCONNECT property. This way, you can start any
stream based app with PIPEWIRE_AUTOCONNECT=false to disable
the session manager autoconnect.
See #964
Some apps use 0 to get some sort of sink/source info. PulseAudio
likely has a source/sink at index 0 but PipeWire certainly does not.
Asking for 0 source/sink is always because of some hardcoded values
in the app and we can return the default source/sink without causing
any problems for other apps.
See #756
The start-delay adds extra silence to the buffer before starting the
playback. The idea is to have more time to adapt to the device
startup and set the timer more accurately.
See #983, #431
