NAME¶
muroard - minimalist sound server for the RoarAudio protocol
SYNOPSIS¶
muroard [OPTIONS]...
DESCRIPTION¶
muRoarD is a sound server supporting the RoarAudio protocol. It is designed to
mix the audio data of multiple applications together to send it as a single
stream to the soundcard.
muRoarD is a minimalist version of such a sound server. It does only implement
the very minimum part the the protocol but is very much smaller than the
original roard.
MISC OPTIONS¶
- -h --help
- Print a short help and exit.
- --version
- Print version information of the daemon and exit.
- --daemon
- Bring the server into background after init.
On win32 this hides the console window. This only works if used within a
Shortcut.
- --autostandby
- Start in autostandby mode.
- --no-autostandby
- Do not start in autostandby mode.
- --standby
- Start in standby mode.

AUDIO OPTIONS¶
- -R --rate RATE
- Set server sample rate.
- -C --chans CHANNELS

depend on the used driver.
SOURCES OPTIONS¶

- -sC CHANS
- Sets the number of channels for the source. This is the

- -sE CODEC
- Sets codec for the source. This is the same as '-sO
codec=XXX' for roard.

- Disable listen socket. This may be used for example to
implement the server type '+fork' but is absolutly useless for normal
users.

- --bind ADDR
- Set path/hostname of listen socket. This may be a
/path/to/sock for UNIX Sockets or a hostname or address for TCP/IP.
