roartips(7)						System Manager's Manual: RoarAuido					       roartips(7)

NAME

       roartips - Tips for RoarAudio users

SYNOPSIS

	roard [OPTIONS...] ...

	roarclient [OPTIONS...] ...

DESCRIPTION

       This manpage lists some tips for intermedia to advanced users of RoarAudio.

CONTROLLING ROARD

       RoarAudio supports a lot of things you can change on the fly.  This includes the volume for each stream as you may allready noticed: If you
       cange the volume within a player only this stream is changed, other streams keep there loudness. There a a lot other  things  that  can	be
       changed on the fly.  To do this there is a tool called roarctl(1). You may want to play around a bit with it. A good start are to try those
       two commands:
	roarctl --help
	roarctl allinfo

       The later one will show you all information current available of the server it self, the clients and the streams. This may include a lot of
       information.

SERVER ADDRESS

       There  a serverel types of server addresses based on the protocol used to communicate.  This lists the corrently implemented types in order
       of importance:

       /path/to/sock
	      Path to UNIX Domain Socket.  Example:
	       /tmp/roar

       host, host:port
	      This is used for connections over TCP/IP.  If port is omitted the default port is used.  Examples:
	       audio.homeserver.local
	       localhost:7564

       node::, node::object, ::object, ::
	      This is the way to specify a DECnet connection to node node's object object. Both may be omitted to use defaults. Default node  name
	      is local hosts node name.  Examples:
	       mynode::
	       ::roar
	       yournode::yourroard

       +fork  This starts a new roard for every roar_connect(3).  This is used internaly by the lib to emulate EsounD's fallback.

ENVIRONMENT

       ROAR_SERVER
	      This  varibale contains the default server address. If some client does not allow a user to set a server address or to set a default
	      value this one come into play. Examples:
	       ROAR_SERVER=some.host
	       ROAR_SERVER=another.host:port
	       ROAR_SERVER=node::
	       ROAR_SERVER=/tmp/roar
