I was looking for something to distribute 2 channel audio source to 8 channel output (it's generic but my setup is something like headphones on FL FR and rest is connected to 5.1 loudspeaker)
I often got audio only from headphones. I manually connected channels in helvum but it was reset each time new audio played.
So I decided to solve it somehow and I found filter which makes opposite - 8 channels to 2 channels.
I made dirty custom changes which I would like to share, ask for review and tuning.
| Code: | # 2 to 8 channels sink
#
# Copy this file into a conf.d/ directory such as
# ~/.config/pipewire/filter-chain.conf.d/
#
context.modules = [
{ name = libpipewire-module-filter-chain
flags = [ nofail ]
args = {
node.description = "Virtual Surround Sink DeIM"
media.name = "Virtual Surround Sink DeIM"
filter.graph = {
nodes = [
# duplicate inputs
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copyFL }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copyFR }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copyFC }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copyRL }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copyRR }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copySL }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copySR }
{ type = builtin label = copy name = copyLFE }
# stereo output
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixFL }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixFR }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixFC }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixLFE }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixRL }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixRR }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixSL }
{ type = builtin label = mixer name = mixSR }
]
links = [
