| sjfloat | I need to dive in and learn wireplumber. The heuristic choices that are being made are often not what I want. | 18:47:15 |
| sjfloat | I'd really rather things were more deterministic. | 18:47:29 |
 CRTified (old handle) | That's a thing that annoys me, too. I do have some rnnoise module enabled, but sometimes it does pick the wrong source | 18:48:12 |
| sjfloat | Maybe one of us will throw together a tutorial once they had some success with that. | 18:49:27 |
| sjfloat | So, Carla -- for some reason, it only finds my LADSPA plugins, regardless of how I set up the paths to scan. Anyone have any luck with that? | 18:50:16 |
| sjfloat | I also wonder if it's possible to configure static patching for some things. I wonder if that would ease my performance problems with chrome. | 18:51:26 |
| CRTified (old handle) | Depending on your config, it's possible that the defaults are not applied anymore. Most of the defaults are given as a list and won't merge properly (within the nixos module) | 18:52:52 |
| CRTified (old handle) | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/nixos/modules/services/desktops/pipewire/pipewire.nix#L35-L41 for reference | 18:53:14 |
| sjfloat | Sorry I brought up two topics at once. | 18:54:15 |
| sjfloat | RE plugin paths for Carla, I'm not relying on defaults. I'm specifying where the plugin directories are in my profile. But it doesn't detect them for some reason when it scans. | 18:55:04 |
| sjfloat | Was that what you were referencing? | 18:55:31 |
| CRTified (old handle) | Ohhh, I think at that point I'm the wrong one to ask. Sorry for the confusion 😓 I somehow thought that you were referring to the spa-libs settings for pipewire | 18:57:23 |
| sjfloat | My bad. I was impatient :) | 18:57:52 |

| sjfloat | [Sheeplishly] I think I may have resolved the carla plugin problem. | 19:15:31 |
| sjfloat | There was a "reset filter" button. When I punched it, all the other plugins showed up. I have no idea how it got set or to what. I think it might have been residue from an earlier config. | 19:16:35 |
| sjfloat | Progress! | 19:16:47 |
| sjfloat | I found this in my carla config ShowFilters=false | 19:20:08 |
| sjfloat | No wonder they were invisible. | 19:20:21 |
|  Chris McDonough joined the room. | 19:21:28 |
| sjfloat | It doesn't appear in the UI though. | 19:21:49 |
| Chris McDonough | howdy folks | 19:21:49 |
| Chris McDonough | fwiw i also switched to pipewire (out of necessity, it seemed... i could not get ardour to recognize any hardware under jack or PA) | 19:23:31 |
| sjfloat | I couldn't get PA to build any more. So yeah, forced :) | 19:24:07 |
| Chris McDonough | i haven't noticed anything not work yet using pipewire, but it has only been a couple of days | 19:24:12 |
| Chris McDonough | i'm happy to test anything here that you guys think is a problem | 19:24:41 |
| sjfloat | I'll have to work through the list again. See where things are. | 19:27:07 |
| sjfloat | For better or worse, I adopted the AMS pkg. But I'm pretty sure I'm doing it wrong. | 19:27:46 |
