Description: libraries for the PipeWire multimedia server - documentation
 PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia

   application provided streams) and multiplexing this with clients.
 - Accessing sources of video for consumption.
 - Generating graphs for audio and video processing.

Other Info
--------------
PipeWire [1] is an optional dependency of mutter 3.26 to enable
experimental Remote Desktop support in GNOME on Wayland. But its
ambitions are greater: "PipeWire now aims at unifying linux Audio and
Video." [2]

The author gave a talk recently at GUADEC about PipeWire. [3]

The Debian GNOME team intends to maintain this package.

Work-in-progress packaging is at
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-gnome/pipewire.git
