ability to indicate/visualize audio output on a client/sink/source
maricn opened this issue · comments
Problem
I often have lots of pulseaudio clients that I want to move around my several outputs (local, bluetooth, combined). It's hard to identify which client is the one I want to move. Observe the screenshot demonstrating the situation with multiple firefox tabs (upper terminal hosts pulsemixer
, while lower two show how it looks like in pamix
with playback clients and output devices tabs).
Suggestion
Now, I like the simple and uncluttered interface of pulsemixer
so I don't think it would be serving to maintaining that value to add additional bar like pamix
does, but we could use text color changing from green to red dynamically based on volume or some other indicator that would at least point to what clients are actively sending some sound through and which are just idle.
