NAME

       muroarstream - Simple RoarAudio client

SYNOPSIS

       muroarstream [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       muroarstream is a simple client for the RoarAudio sound system.	It is based on muRoar (libmuroar).  It can only be used to send data to or
       get data from the server.  No control functionality is supported.

OPTIONS

       --help Display a brief help.

       -f --file     FILE
	      Sets the file to read from or write to.

       --server   SERVER
	      Sets the server to SERVER.  Default is to auto detect the server. (see below)

       -R --rate     RATE
	      Sets the sample rate.  This defaults to 44100Hz.

       -C --channels CHANS
	      Sets the number of channels.  this defaults to 2 channels (stereo).  Symbolic names "mono" and "stereo" as well as "default" can	be
	      used.

       -B --bits     BITS
	      Sets the number of bits per sample.  The default is 16bit per sample.

       -E --codec    CODEC
	      Sets  the  codec	to  use.  The default depends on used subsystem.  For Waveform it uses Signed native PCM, for Light DMX512 and for
	      MIDI MIDI.  The following symbolic names can be used: default, pcm, pcm_s, pcm_u, ogg_vorbis, vorbis,  alaw,  mulaw,  ulaw,  dmx512,
	      roardmx, midi.

       --play Use Playback mode (send data to the server).  This is the default.

       --monitor
	      Use monitor mode (get a copy of the played data from the server).

       --wave Use Waveform subsystem (default).

       --midi Use MIDI subsystem.

       --light
	      Use Light Control subsystem.

AUTO DETECTION

       The  server  will be auto located if no server name is given.  First it will look for the environment variable $ROAR_SERVER.  If this vari-
       able is non existing libmuroar will do the auto location based on a list of possible server locations.  This list contains the global  UNIX
       socket address, the user's private socket address and an entry for localhost using TCP/IP.

       The UNIX socket addresses are only compiled in if UNIX socket support is detected.

NAME

       roarcat, roarmon - RoarAudio sound server base clients

SYNOPSIS

       roarcat [OPTIONS]... [FILE]

       roarmon [OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

       This  are  some	basic  clients	for  RoarAuido.  Some more complex are listen in the SEE ALSO block.  For controlling roard take a look at
       roarctl(1). For a simple Ogg Vorbis player take a look at roarvorbis(1) (ogg123 supportes RoarAudio via libao plugin).

       roarcat
	      Sends raw PCM audio data from a file or stdin (pipe) to the sound server.

       roarmon
	      Gets a copy of the audio data the server sends to the soundcard. This is useful for streaming to a server like icecast2(1).

GENERAL OPTIONS

       NOTE: This list is incomplete!  In addition to this list all three programs provide compatible options for esdcat,  esdmon.  You  can  just
       replace the "esd" in the name with "roar" or use symlinks. This options are for compatibly only and should not used in new programs.

       --help Print some help text.

AUDIO OPTIONS

       --rate RATE, -R RATE
	      Set server sample rate.

       --bits BITS, -B BITS
	      Set server bits.

       --chans CHANNELS, -C CHANNELS
	      Set server channels.

NETWORK OPTIONS

       --server SERVER
	      The server to connect to.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       Bellow only the basic environment varibales are listend.  For a complete list see libroar(7).

       HOME   The users home directory.

       ROAR_SERVER
	      The address of the listening server. This may be in form of host:port for TCP/IP connections and /path/to/sock for UNIX Domain Sock-
	      ets or any other supported format. See roartips(7) for a full list.  This is the same as the --server option.

BUGS

       There are a lot of bugs...
