PipeWire 1.2 with the previous release candidate added explicit sync support, async processing, Snap support, and a variety of other enhancements for this wonderful solution for managing audio/video streams on the modern Linux desktop.
Most exciting with today's PipeWire 1.2 RC2 is the new snapcast-discover module. This new PipeWire module detects remote Snapcast servers and creates a new sink for each server to allow streaming to them. Snapcast is a multi-room client-server audio player for a nice synchronized multi-room audio experience. Those unfamiliar with Snapcast can learn more on GitHub .
The PipeWire 1.2 RC2 release also brings bug fixes and other small improvements. Overall it's quite a small release with it looking like PipeWire 1.2 stable will be out soon.
