Breaking changes

• [#64] Add support for sources (microphone). You can now use the --node-type argument to select whether to use sinks (speakers) or sources (microphones). This makes it possible to also control microphones with the script exactly in the same ways as before: volume control, switching between them, muting, etc. Thus, many arguments and options have been renamed to be generic over both sinks and sources, under the name node:
  • The next-sink action is now next-node
  • The --icon-sink argument is now --icon-node
  • The --sink-blacklist argument is now --node-blacklist
  • The --sink-nicknames-from argument is now --node-nicknames-from
  • The --sink-nickname argument is now --node-nickname
  • The ICON_SINK variable is now ICON_NODE
  • The SINK_NICKNAME variable is now NODE_NICKNAME

These items are deprecated for now so that it's easy to find out about the changes, but they will be removed in a future version. Check out the README and the --help message for more information about this new feature.

New

• [#65, #67] Optimize listen function

Fixed

• [#66] Fix argument parsing (--osd action would ignore the action parameter, for example).

Many thanks to @Aerion for working on most of these features! Especially supporting both sinks and sources, which should make this script much more flexible.
