plebaudio

=========

![](meme.jpg)

plebaudio is a no-bullshit script demonstrating how to use a FIFO pipe

to stream data over UDP.

It is intended to be used as a sound server. For example, `mpv` is able

to output raw PCM audio using `--ao=pcm --ao-pcm-file=/some/fd`. We

can use this to our advantage and create a simple audio streaming

protocol.

Server-side, we can just run:

```

$ socat -b 2048 STDIO UDP-LISTEN:2115 | aplay

```

Locally, we can run `plebaudio` and then play something with `mpv`:

```

$ plebaudio my-sound-server:2115

$ mpv 'https://yewtu.be/watch?v=Mw__xMOkrRE' --ao=pcm --ao-pcm-file=/tmp/plebaudio.sock

```

Quit `plebaudio` with `^C`.
