Test how Liquidsoap live audio behaves using PipeWire
Parent: [EPIC] Smooth play-out latency and buffering fo... (#50 - closed)
2023-07-25 @Loxbie had some success with using PipeWire (see this ticket):
Today I achieved line-in playout with no input lag, eg no buffer underruns. The things I did to achieve this:
- upgrade to Debian 12
- install pipewire
- install wireplumber
- install pipewire-alsa
- follow the instructions for Debian 12
- make sure pulseaudio is removed
- set my frame size to 64, I do think this works with different sizes as well
- start engine-core or aura-playout
This did work for the complete aura-playout system, not only engine-core.
Sub Tasks
-
Reproduce the successful test scenario with Pipewire above -
Decide in the team if we should support ALSA with PipeWire only -
Add the instructions to the Engine Core README -
Add the instructions to the "Aura Playout" docs at docs.aura.radio
