/** \mainpage PipeWire
|
|
|
|
PipeWire is low-level multimedia framework that provides:
|
|
|
|
- Graph based processing.
|
|
- Support for out-of-process processing graphs with minimal overhead.
|
|
- Flexible and extensible media format negotiation and buffer allocation.
|
|
- Hard real-time capable plugins.
|
|
- Very low-latency for both audio and video processing.
|
|
|
|
See \ref page_overview for an overview of PipeWire and \ref page_design
|
|
for the design principles guiding PipeWire.

# Components
|
|
|
|
PipeWire ships with the following components:
|
|
|
|
- A \ref page_daemon that implements the IPC and graph processing.
|
|
- An example \ref page_session_manager that manages objects in the \ref page_daemon.
|
|
- A set of \ref page_programs to introspect and use the \ref page_daemon.
|
|
- A \ref page_library to develop PipeWire applications and plugins (\ref
|
|
page_tutorial "tutorial").
|
|
- The \ref page_spa used by both the \ref page_daemon and in the \ref
|
|
page_library.
