Add a new config section that can contain a set of commands to run after
starting.
There is only load-module available now but it can be used to remove the
dependency on pactl when starting the server.
Only enable pulse.idle.timeout for selected applications
(speech-dispatcher) and let other applications be. We can also
lower the minreq and min-quantum of speech-dispatcher now.
Fixes#2880
When a client is not sending any data when it should be and causes an
underrun, mark it as idle and record the timestamp.
When a client is idle for pulse.idle.timeout seconds, set the stream
as inactive. When more data is received, set it back to active.
Add a pulse.idle.timeout option to set a global server default or
a per-stream value. Set the server default to 5 seconds. A value of 0
can be used to disable this feature.
With this change, badly behaving clients that are not sending any data
will be paused so that the sinks can suspend to save battery power.
Fixes#2839
Rename empty.noise -> dither.noise and always add this amount of noise
when > 0. This also adds the noise to silent sounds, not only when
nothing is connected because that would also be a problem when an amp
needs to be kept alive with an non-0 signal.
Rename noise -> dither because we can use this also for dithering later.
See #705
Increase the FC filter frequency to 12KHz for better dialogs. This
filter is only applied when making the FC from FRONT channels so that
we keep the high frequency signal on the FRONT mostly.
Increase LFE filter frequency to make slightly more bass.
Disable widen filter by default.
Update config files with the correct defaults.
Add a property to select the upmix method. PSD is enabled by default
but a new simple upmixing algorithm is available that duplicates
channels and avoids lowpass filter on the FC and disables widening.
Fixes#861
Add an option to do a hilbert transform on the generated rear channels
to do a 90 degree pahse shift on them. This can improve spacialization
of the rear channels.
See #861
Add a module for a fallback dummy sink, which appears dynamically when
no other sinks are present.
Enable it for pipewire-pulse, because Pulseaudio will also show
dynamically a dummy sink.
Make the default nice.level an invalid value, that is not configured
as the priority on a process.
Explicitly enable a nice level on our daemon processes.
Fixes#2034
I don't think PipeWire currently has a way to temporarily alias
module-rtkit to module-rt though, so right now this would break realtime
scheduling for people with modified configs that use module-rtkit.
Also scale the max_quantum with the selected rate. Add a new
quantum_limit property that is the upper limit of the quantum regardless
of the sample rate, this is usually the allocated buffer size.
See #1931
Extend the server.address property so that you can also specify
an object per server. Add support for configuring some aspects of the
server such as max-clients and backlog.
Most importantly, the pipewire client.access can be configured per
server.
See #1960
200ms seems a little small, some plugins initialize themselves from the
RT thread and get killed. 2 seconds seem to be a better default.
The important part is that there is a limit so that runaway processes
are killed and don't lock up the system.
Fixes#1344
Add support for listening on IPv6 addresses.
The following address formats are supported:
* tcp:[<ipv6-addr>]:<port>,
* tcp:<ipv4-addr>:<port>,
* tcp:<port>, and
* unix:<path>.
The IP addresses are parsed using `inet_pton()`,
only the formats supported by that function
are accepted.
The IPv6 address must be surrounded by square brackets,
they do not mean "optional" here. Specifying only the
port is equivalent to the following two addresses:
* [::]:<port>, and
* 0.0.0.0:<port>.
Address parsing has been made stricter: the port
must always be specified explicitly.
Fixes#1216.
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.
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
Make arrays from config sections that should really be an array.
Having the module name as the object key technically makes it
impossible to load the same module twice because the key can only
be once in the object.
The same applies to the context.objects and context.exec sections.
This also makes it somewhat easier to parse the config..
