AES67 Monitor

The AES67 Monitor is a community-created plugin for Linux Show Player.

This plugin adds the ability to monitor a running instance of the bondagit AES67 Daemon, and through it AES67 and AES67-compatible audio streams on the network.

Description

AES67 is an Audio-over-IP technical standard that can either be used standalone, or as a way to connect certain proprietary AoIP systems with support for AES67 (e.g. Dante, Ravenna, LiveWire+) that would be otherwise unable to interoperate. More information can be found on the AES67 page on Wikipedia.

For Linux Systems, AES67 support can be obtained by using the Merging Technologies' kernel driver that adds Ravenna and AES67 capabilities to ALSA. Unfortunately, whilst the kernel driver itself is Open Source (GPLv3.0), the "Butler" (the interface allowing configuration of audio streams entering and leaving the computer running the driver) is not.

There is a way around that however: Andrea Bondavalli's AES67 Daemon.

Andrea's daemon has an API that this plugin communicates with, allowing in-program at-a-glance indication of status, in addition to rudimentary routing of the local AES67 audio connections.

Installation

To use, navigate to $XDG_DATA_HOME/LinuxShowPlayer/$LiSP_Version/plugins/ (on most Linux systems $XDG_DATA_HOME is ~/.local/share), and create a subfolder named aes67_monitor.

Place the files comprising this plugin into this new folder.

When you next start Linux Show Player, the program should load the plugin automatically.
