ph_mto

About ph_mto

ph_mto is a small program written in C++, that enables/disables microphone output in PulseAudio (MTO is from Mic-To-Output). It enables PulseAudio’ s loopback module, remembers its number and runs PAVUControl (because without it there’ s a delay in output). Another run of ph_mto disables the loopback module and kills PAVUControl.

Usage

./ph_mto or ph_mto (when copied to /usr/bin) to toggle Mic-To-Output on/off.

Status file

ph_mto generates status file, which shows if Mic-To-Output is enabled. There is 0, when it’ s off, and 1, when it’ s on. Path to status file: ~/.ph_mto/status.

Other projects

I integrated ph_mto with ph_lmmc recently and released version 0.3 “Mic-To-Output” of ph_lmmc. You can find it at ph_lmmc repo.
