NAME
libpipewire-module-ffado-driver − FFADO firewire audio driver
DESCRIPTION
The ffado-driver module provides a source or sink using the libffado library for reading and writing to firewire audio devices.
MODULE NAME
libpipewire-module-ffado-driver
MODULE OPTIONS
| • | driver.mode: the driver mode, sink|source|duplex, default duplex | ||
| • | ffado.devices: array of devices to open, default “hw:0” | ||
| • | ffado.period-size: period size,default 1024. A value of 0 will use the graph duration. | ||
| • | ffado.period-num: period number,default 3 | ||
| • | ffado.sample-rate: sample-rate, default 48000. A value of 0 will use the graph rate. | ||
| • | ffado.slave-mode: slave mode | ||
| • | ffado.snoop-mode: snoop mode | ||
| • | ffado.verbose: ffado verbose level | ||
| • | ffado.rtprio: ffado realtime priority, this is by default the PipeWire server priority + 5 | ||
| • | ffado.realtime: ffado realtime mode. this requires correctly configured rlimits to acquire FIFO scheduling at the ffado.rtprio priority | ||
| • | latency.internal.input: extra input latency in frames | ||
| • | latency.internal.output: extra output latency in frames | ||
| • | source.props: Extra properties for the source filter | ||
| • | sink.props: Extra properties for the sink filter |
GENERAL OPTIONS
Options with well-known behavior.
| • | remote.name | ||
| • | audio.position | ||
| • | node.name | ||
| • | node.description | ||
| • | node.group | ||
| • | node.virtual | ||
| • | media.class | ||
| • | target.object to specify the remote node.name or serial.id to link to |
