NAME

       paplay - Play back audio files on a PulseAudio sound server

SYNOPSIS

       paplay [options] FILE

       paplay --help

       paplay --version

DESCRIPTION

       paplay  is a simple tool for playing back audio files on a PulseAudio sound server. It understands all audio file formats supported by lib-
       sndfile.

OPTIONS

       -h | --help
	      Show help.

       --version
	      Show version information.

       -v | --verbose
	      Enable verbose operation. Dumps the current playback time to STDERR during playback.

       -s | --server=SERVER
	      Choose the server to connect to.

       -d | --device=SINK
	      Specify the symbolic name of the sink to play this file on.

       -n | --client-name=NAME
	      Specify the client name paplay shall pass to the server when connecting.

       --stream-name=NAME
	      Specify the stream name paplay shall pass to the server when creating the stream.

       --volume=VOLUME
	      Specify the initial playback volume to use. Choose a value between 0 (silent) and 65536 (100% volume).

       --channel-map=CHANNELMAP
	      Explicitly choose a channel map when playing back this stream. The argument should be a  comma  separated  list  of  channel  names:
	      front-left,  front-right,  mono, front-center, rear-left, rear-right, rear-center, lfe, front-left-of-center, front-right-of-center,
	      side-left, side-right, top-center, top-front-center, top-front-left, top-front-right, top-rear-left,  top-rear-right,  top-rear-cen-
	      ter, or any of the 32 auxiliary channel names aux0 to aux31.

LIMITATIONS

       Due  to a limitation in libsndfile paplay currently does not always set the correct channel mapping for playback of multichannel (i.e. sur-
       round) audio files, even if the channel mapping information is available in the audio file.
