Hi All! I connected two pulseaudio systems via a unix socket. I have a detailed communication log. I need help in decoding or a hint where there is a full description of the protocol. I want to understand what's going on there. I see that two different versions are connecting - is it so critical? Best Regards ------ log ------ ltsm_vnc2sdl[1673]: recvData: size: 296, content:
