-r: Set low nice value (high priority) and SCHED_FIFO scheduling if available. Works only when started as root or SUID root.

-R: Don't drop root rights if started SUID root.

-L MODULE: Load the specified module. This option may be specified more than once.

-F FILE: Run the specified script. This option may be specified more than once.

-C: Load the module module-cli after startup.

-n: Don't load the default configuration file. Normally ~/.polypaudio or /etc/polyp/polypaudio.pa are loaded on startup.

-D: Daemonize after successfully executing all scripts and loading all modules.

-d: Disallow module load and unload after startup.

-f: Unless this option is given the daemon will terminate if any of the specified modules failed to load or the script didn't execute successfully.

Example

It is a good idea to run the daemon like this:

-
polypaudio -D -F /etc/polypaudio/polypaudio.pa
+
polypaudio -rD
-

/etc/polypaudio/polypaudio.pa should be a script written in the CLI language described in cli.html +

This will run /etc/polypaudio/polypaudio.pa after startup. This should be a script written in the CLI language described in cli.html.
