[user@user blast]$ ./blast

- If you choose
blast.monitor
as a source, you can send apps' audio to it (in pavucotrol or whatever applet you use) without streaming entire the desktop audio
-
If none of the built-in codecs presets satisfy you, you can specify your own with
-mime
and-format
. For example:-mime audio/ac3 -format ac3
,-mime audio/opus -format opus
,-mime "audio/x-caf" -format caf
or-mime "audio/mpeg" -format mp2
-
You can change audio features with
-rate
,-bits
and-channels
, e.g.blast -rate 48000 -bits 24 -channels 1
You need the go
and go-tools
toolchain, also git
then execute:
git clone https://github.com/ugjka/blast
cd blast
go build
now you can run blast with:
[user@user blast]$ ./blast
Prebuilt Linux binaries are available on the releases page
This is for pipewire-pulse users.
- You need to allow port 9000 from LAN for the DLNA receiver to be able to access the HTTP stream, you can change it with
-port
flag - blast monitor sink may not be visible in the pulse control applet unless you enable virtual streams
