NAME

       pw-jack - Use PipeWire instead of JACK

SYNOPSIS

       pw-jack [options] COMMAND [FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       pw-jack  modifies  the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable so that applications will load
       PipeWire's reimplementation of the JACK client libraries instead of JACK's own  libraries.
       This results in JACK clients being redirected to PipeWire.

       If  PipeWire's  reimplementation  of  the  JACK  client  libraries has been installed as a
       system-wide replacement for JACK's own libraries, then the whole system already behaves in
       that way, in which case pw-jack has no practical effect.

OPTIONS

       -h     Show help.

       -r NAME
              The name of the remote instance to connect to. If left unspecified, a connection is
              made to the default PipeWire instance.

       -v     Verbose operation.

EXAMPLES

       pw-jack sndfile-jackplay /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/bell.oga

NOTES

       Using PipeWire for audio is currently considered to be experimental.
