- •
- transfer streams between sinks/sources

OPTIONAL PULSEAUDIO MODULES¶
pasystray makes use of the following PulseAudio modules for some optional
features:
- •
- module-device-manager - device renaming
- •
- module-zeroconf-discover - network device discovery
These modules may need to be loaded, using e.g.
pactl(1).
REMOTE SINKS/SOURCES¶
In order to detect remote sinks/source, as well as enabling
module-zeroconf-discover locally, module-zeroconf-publish must be enabled on
the remote server.
REMOTE SERVER¶
As with most PulseAudio-aware applications, the environment variable
PULSE_SERVER may be set to the address of a remote host in order to use
pasystray to control the server running on that host.
OPTIONS¶
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options
starting with two dashes (`-').
