Just donated to the effort to improve sound quality on the #Librem5 when using #pipewire: https://opencollective.com/dephcom/projects/pipewire-echo

I'd be even more happy about the approach of sponsoring development through the community if this donation would be accepted as being for an official non-profit organization accepted as such in Germany.

Giving for #OpenSource should be respected as a a benefit to the public and appreciated by the government by whatever means they do this for other purposes (in Germany it's possible to declare such donations for reducing taxes to pay).

Hey #MobileLinux community - if everybody gives a little there'll be a fair pay for someone doing this work.

Curious about customizing #WirePlumber for embedded systems? In my latest blog post, I break down the configuration structure and explain how to streamline your setup, based on real-world insights from a recent customer project.

Learn how to:
- Use profiles and configuration fragments for easy customization
- Minimize unnecessary features for leaner, faster systems
- Avoid common pitfalls with desktop dependencies

If you missed it Fedora Magazine recently ran a great article on Wireplumber, our PipeWire Session Manager - https://fedoramagazine.org/introduction-to-wireplumber/

Okay, wenn ich mir das jetzt manuell so hinklicke, dann funktioniert es.

Mach ich das Programm zu, oder starte entweder OSB oder Butt neu, oder - gott bewahre - das USB Interface ist kurz weg, ist alles wieder kaputt...

Ich glaub an dem Punkt war ich schon mal und hab dann auf #Windows zurück geweschselt -.-

It’s the year of our Lord 2025 … and thanks to @faheus’ excellent Nerdsniping skills I’m trying to get my old #FireWire #ieee1394 Audio Interfaces running reliably in Linux ;)

Verdict so far: MOTU amazingly works very well using in-kernel ALSA FireWire drivers. FFADO (in its pipewire-incarnation) still a catastrophe, as was 12 years ago. EchoAudio still randomly crashes machines as was the case 2014 :).

PipeWire 1.4.2 mit Stabilitätsverbesserungen und MIDI-Fixes!

Was ist PipWire!

PipeWire ist ein Multimedia-Framework, das ursprünglich für die Verarbeitung von Audio- und Video-Streams in Linux entwickelt wurde. Es zielt darauf ab, die Funktionalität von bestehenden Systemen wie PulseAudio (für Audio) und GStreamer (für Multimedia) zu vereinen und zu verbessern. PipeWire bietet eine flexible Architektur, die es ermöglicht, Audio- und Video-Streams in Echtzeit zu verarbeiten und zu verwalten.

Wireplumber is the session manager for @pipewire, helping to provide stability and flexibility to your Linux system. You can also do scripting with Lua!

https://fedoramagazine.org/introduction-to-wireplumber/

If you're having trouble with OBS where it just won't get anything and the log says it's getting a corrupted buffer from pipewire, then check for updates in your Flatpak thing because there could be new stuff even if you just updated.

PipeWire 1.4.2 multimedia framework fixes MIDI CPU issues, improves pw-cat streaming, and resolves crashes.

#Pipewire makes life easier for people starting with music production on #Linux.

#Ardour is ready as well these days.

https://cdm.link/ardour-9-is-coming-and-8-is-great/

is it too late to join the #pipewire party? i hope not, or else my #flx1 will be sad

all applications that use pipewire can finally utilize the camera (adding to our list of v4l, qtmultimedia and android apps)

one issue we are facing is that aperture is not very happy with the back cameras, so applications like #GNOME snapshot or authenticator will have the preview flipped. captured frames are surprisingly not flipped tho:

GPD Pocket 4 Speaker DSP: Configuring PipeWire so laptop speakers sound better

If you're looking to equalize system audio with Pipewire, Easy Effects is pretty amazing for what it is.

You can save and import your presents. Switch them up, etc..

It kinda reminds me of my Winamp days, but you can set it up in many different ways, there are many effects to customize and have as many channels as you want.

I feel the UI is a little clunky, but it works well on my glorified netbook.. Acer - Swift 3

In order to run Ardour on Linux you do NOT need the following things:
- JACK
- PipeWire
- PulseAudio

Use Linux' native drivers called ALSA and off you go.

P.S. You can't watch YouTube anymore when using ALSA with Ardour. Never watched YouTube on my guitar so personally I don't mind.

Nimm #pipewire, haben sie gesagt. Damit wird alles einfacher, haben sie gesagt.

Naja, man ist da sicher auf einem guten Weg. Aber das Jonglieren mit config Dateien und Einstellungen erinnert mich doch etwas daran, wie es vor reichlich zehn Jahren war, wenn man #jack und #pulseaudio zusammenbringen wollte.

Zwar muss jetzt nicht soo viel konfiguriert werden, aber man muss schon ein wenig herumsuchen...

Mit meinem install #Script für das #Audio Zeug hab ich es nun ohne jack versucht. Mal sehen ob es sich mit #ubuntu 24 #Linux bewährt:

Dankbar bin ich für Ideen dazu und für Hinweise auf Fehler.
