Device list utility

The file device list utility is installed as part of the full Klipspringer platform, and is run with the command klipdevices1.

See Selecting audio output device for explanation of how to use the output of klipdevices as arguments to other commands or to configure the Klipspringer hub.

When run without parameters, the klipdevices command lists the names of all available inputs and outputs. To also include information about what formats the devices support, use the command:

klipdevices -f

The list can be limited to inputs or outputs only, or to specific devices. Use the -help option to see the full argument alternatives.

Notes

  1. The command is a shell script that launches the Java class DeviceList. Hence, Java needs to be installed, but Node.js doesn’t.
