NAME
pw-metadata - The PipeWire metadata
SYNOPSIS
pw-metadata [ options ] [ id [ key [ value [ type ] ] ] ]
DESCRIPTION
Monitor, set and delete metadata on PipeWire objects.
Metadata are key/type/value triplets attached to objects identified by id . The metadata is shared between all applications binding to the same metadata object. When an object is destroyed, all its metadata is automatically removed.
When no value is given, pw-metadata will query and log the metadata matching the optional arguments id and key . Without any arguments, all metadata is displayed.
When value is given, pw-metadata will set the metadata for id and key to value and an optional type .
