PyQT GUI application to dynamically modify Pipewire and Wireplumber settings at runtime, such as quantum, sample rate, audio profiles, latency offset, services restart and more. It features side-by-side and graph style connections managers (uses Python Jack Client so will not list Pipewire items), pw-top wrapper, simple ALSA mixer and jack_delay GUI.

To run, clone repository and start with python Cable.py. You will need python jack client, see here, python PyQT6, jack_delay (or jack-example-tools), pyalsaaudio and aj-snapshot installed: sudo apt install python3-jack-client libqt6svg6 jack-delay python3-pyqt6 python3-dbus python3-requests python3-packaging aj-snapshot python3-alsaaudio pipewire-jack

Various packages are also available in releases. On Arch Linux, install using PKGBUILD or with Arch package. App is also available on AUR.

~~For auto-start to work with AppImage, enable Autostart in tray menu and edit Exec entry in ~/.config/autostart/cable-autostart.desktop to point to your AppImage executable (e.g. Exec=/location/on/disk/./Cable-0.9.4.AppImage --minimized).~~ From version 0.9.16, auto-start should work with AppImage (toggle Autostart option off/on to recreate .desktop file).

If you wonder what Latency Offset option does, look here.

You need Pipewire in version 1.0 or newer, for connections manager to work.
