Connect your phone as microphone wirelessly. Supports both PipeWire and PulseAudio.

broo's Issues

Mumla randomly disconnects

This is due to a problem in Mumla (and not Broo), probably due to an old mumble version used by the app. Basically the code is almost unmaintained at this point.

If you have a similar problem, please bump https://gitlab.com/quite/mumla/-/issues/105.

Edit: Does not happen for all phones.

Failed to get sink information: No such entity

I am on the latest manjaro kde with Pulseaudio. I modified the script to install mumble and murmur through pacman. But I am still getting this error, Please help.

broo stuck on initializing

I tried running this on ubuntu 22 LTS but broo is stuck on initializing.

parsing result of (pactl list sink-inputs) fails on different locale

pactl supports multiple locale and command $(pactl list sink-inputs) doesn't start with Sink Input on different locale
https://github.com/siddhpant/broo/blob/968db04106acf95f7176f156d3cf1867b3800f1c/broo#L97C39-L97C39
I suggest you to change it to $(LC_ALL=C pactl list sink-inputs)

C++ implementation

Should a C++ implementation using libmumble work better than the current thing?

It will give greater control and might fix issues like #11 cleanly, but is the extra complexity worth the effort?

hostname: illegal option -- I

This is from running Broo itself, I've already ran the setup script.
On the man page, there's no mention of such option.
Is this needed?
FYI, I ran this on Artix Linux.

Add uninstall instructions in README

May seem like a noob question, but uninstall instructions would be greatly appreciated.

broo does not start Flatpak Mumble for configuration step.

When reaching the "Gotta configure the Mumble client from GUI for that sweet low latency." stage, upon pressing any button, Broo will just close finish the script after a few seconds, with no resulting mumble window (Even if there's no Flatpak Mumble installation present!).

Doesn't work on ArchLinux with pipewire.

Hi, I followed the instructions to run your script, but nothing works.
Unless the "Monitor of Broo" appears, but it does not reproduce the sound... But I hear my voice from mumble, which is transmitted through the phone.
Btw, if I terminate the script, then alsa_output remains as an input device, which transmits the sound of the system itself.

Please help me to solve this problem. Thank you in advance

Monitor of Broo not showing up

hey, and, im having a problem with the broo's source, i cant link it to easyeffects input and apply fx to the virtual mic, theres no monitor of broo in helvum or pavucontrol to make a manual link :/

Originally posted by @hitanol in #3 (comment)

easyeffects support?

idk, im using broo a lot but i cant make it plug and play with easyeffects source :(
pls if you can make a workaround i'll be very grateful with you and the gods of wireless audio
(there was a previous issue buut it was more focused in obs, in this case the priority is linking broo to easyeffects mic source)

PipeWire Quantums stuck Initialising Broo

Hello, yesterday i changed my pipewire config files, i edited my quantum latency, resampling quality and noise = 0 and after that today Broo is stucking at Initialising, don't know how to workaround it unless i restore the default latency

Broo.monitor doesn't get listed as an input device. Only "Broo" exists as an output.

pactl list short sinks:

In GNOME (Or any other app) i cannot see Broo being listed as an input device. The output device works as an input device, but i am unable to use it in most apps (eg Discord) since its not listed as input

lossless codec

Any workaround or alternativa to stream a lossless audio? I was looking for this thread but don't know if it is easy to do

Checkinstall issues / mumble (source install) still there after uninstall

Checkinstall has a long standing bug not creating package if files does not exist.

Workaround done in 98faae8.

If you cannot uninstall mumble, try setup again so that it creates/installs a correct package for the package manager to know what to remove on uninstall.
