For instance, to use pcm.tee, one has to write
aplay -D pcm.tee:"slave_pcm_name,file_name" some_file.wav
while
aplay -D pcm.tee some_file.wav
does not work.
So if one wants to give the user a list of valid plugins, "pcm.tee" is not good.
cheers
pcm.tee {
@args [ SLAVE FILE FORMAT ]
@args.SLAVE {
type string
}
@args.FILE {
type string
}
@args.FORMAT {
type string
default raw
}
type file
slave.pcm $SLAVE
file $FILE
format $FORMAT
}
