Output¶
OUTPUT should be file name or device name, for example:
- (stdout)
file.wav (WAV file)
default (default output device)
front:CARD=PCH,DEV=0 (ALSA device)
alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereo (PulseAudio sink)
Interpretation of the device name depends on the selected driver.
If the output is omitted, some default output is selected. If the driver is omitted or it is a device driver, the default output device is seelcted. If the driver is a file driver, the stdout is selected.
Driver¶
DRIVER defines the type of the output file or device, for example:
wav
alsa
pulseaudio
If the driver is omitted, some default driver is selected. If the user did specify the output and it is a file with a known extension, the appropriate file driver is selected. Otherwise, the first device driver available on the system is selected.
Port¶
PORT should be in one of the following forms:
protocol::portnum
(0.0.0.0 IP address is used)protocol:ipv4addr:portnum
protocol:[ipv6addr]:portnum
For example:
rtp+rs8m::10001
rtp+rs8m:127.0.0.1:10001
rtp+rs8m:[::1]:10001
If FEC is enabled on sender, a pair of a source and repair ports should be used for communication between sender and receiver. If FEC is disabled, a single source port should be used instead.
Receiver can listen on multiple source and repair ports of different protocols simultaneously. This allows multiple senders which use different protocols and FEC schemes to connect to a single receiver.
Supported protocols for source ports:
rtp (bare RTP, no FEC scheme)
rtp+rs8m (RTP + Reed-Solomon m=8 FEC scheme)
rtp+ldpc (RTP + LDPC-Starircase FEC scheme)
Supported protocols for repair ports:
rs8m (Reed-Solomon m=8 FEC scheme)
ldpc (LDPC-Starircase FEC scheme)
Time¶
- TIME should have one of the following forms:
123ns, 123us, 123ms, 123s, 123m, 123h
EXAMPLES¶
Listen on two ports on all IPv4 interfaces (but not IPv6):
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002
Listen on two ports on all IPv6 interfaces (but not IPv4):
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m:[::]:10001 -r rs8m:[::]:10002
Listen on two ports on a particular interface:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m:192.168.0.3:10001 -r rs8m:192.168.0.3:10002
Listen on two Reed-Solomon ports, two LDPC ports, and one bare RTP port:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 -s rtp+ldpc::10003 -r ldpc::10004 -s rtp::10005
Listen on two ports on all IPv4 interfaces and on two ports on all IPv6 interfaces:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 -s rtp+rs8m:[::]:10001 -r rs8m:[::]:10002
Output to the default ALSA device:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 -d alsa
Output to a specific PulseAudio device:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 -d pulseaudio -o <device>
Output to a file in WAV format:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 -o ./file.wav
Output to stdout in WAV format:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 -d wav -o - > ./file.wav
Force a specific rate on the output device:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 --rate=44100
Select higher session latency and timeouts:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 \
--sess-latency=5s --min-latency=-1s --max-latency=10s --np-timeout=10s --bp-timeout=10s
Select higher I/O latency:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 --io-latency=200ms
Select resampler profile:
$ roc-recv -vv -s rtp+rs8m::10001 -r rs8m::10002 --resampler-profile=high
