      alt here since world down: sadly this doesn’t work with movies. snapcast always adds delay to sync up all clients. so your video and audio are out of sync. I think i remember that somewhere people discussed that snapcast could report the delay to the pipewire to have the video player sync it back up again. but that isn’t implemented “yet” tm

        What speakers/ receiver system are you using? I’m still shopping that part as well. I’m trying some wifi speakers but haven’t got them where they need to be yet.

          Just whats been around tbh. Some old speakers with a cheap bluetooth amplifier board f.e. One of my flatmates added his PC speakers with subwoofer and we got a sourround system running along side it. Didn’t spend anything just connected whats been already around.
