VBAN receiver

NAME

libpipewire-module-vban-recv - VBAN receiver

DESCRIPTION

The vban-recv module creates a PipeWire source that receives audio and midi VBAN packets.

The receive will listen on a specific port (6980) and create a stream for each VBAN stream received on the port.

MODULE NAME

libpipewire-module-vban-recv

MODULE OPTIONS

Options specific to the behavior of this module

•

local.ifname = <str>: interface name to use

•

source.ip = <str>: the source ip address to listen on, default 127.0.0.1

•

source.port = <int>: the source port to listen on, default 6980

•

node.always-process = <bool>: true to receive even when not running

•

sess.latency.msec = <str>: target network latency in milliseconds, default 100

•

stream.props = {}: properties to be passed to all the stream

•

stream.rules = <rules>: match rules, use create-stream actions.

stream.rules matches

•

vban.ip: the IP address of the VBAN sender

•

vban.port: the port of the VBAN sender

•

sess.name: the name of the VBAN stream

stream.rules create-stream

In addition to all the properties that can be passed to a stream, you can also set:

•

sess.latency.msec = <str>: target network latency in milliseconds, default 100
