Post Syndicated from original https://lwn.net/Articles/887212/

The Collabora blog looks
at recent developments
in the PipeWire media system and looks forward
to what is yet to come:

Now in 2022, we are looking to the future. We already have designs
to improve WirePlumber and experiment with new things. On the
short-term horizon, we have plans to rework some parts of
WirePlumber in order to make its configuration more user-friendly
and the scripts easier to work with. We are also planning to
revisit the policy logic and try to go a step beyond what
PulseAudio has ever offered. In addition, we are looking forward to
experimenting with complex cameras to improve how PipeWire and
libcamera work together for an optimal user experience.
