About this application
Helvum is a Linux patchbay for PipeWire, the multimedia server used to route audio and video streams between applications and devices. It gives a graphical view of PipeWire nodes and their ports, allowing a user to inspect connections and change how streams are linked. This can be useful when connecting an application output to a particular device input, routing audio between programs, or checking the structure of a PipeWire session.
The application is published by Tom A. Wagner and Naveen Prashanth and is licensed under GPL-3.0-only. Its role is specific: it manages PipeWire routing on Linux systems. It is not a general media player or editor, and it depends on a PipeWire environment where nodes and ports are available to connect.
