PipeASIO, eine ASIO-Bridge für PipeWire unter Linux (primär für Wine), wurde in der Version v1.8.0 veröffentlicht.

Das Einstellungs-Panel heißt jetzt PipeASIO Manager und kann Treiber-Installationen verwalten: Der Reiter “Installations” erkennt Faugus, Bottles (nativ und Flatpak) sowie manuell gewählte Wine-Prefixes und installiert, aktualisiert, repariert, prüft und entfernt den Treiber per Checksummen-Verifikation. Änderungen sind rückgängig machbar, fehlgeschlagene Prüfungen stellen die vorherige Installation wieder her. Neu sind außerdem das CLI-Tool pipeasio-manage, ein eigenständiges AppImage und ein ARM64-Tarball für Debian.

Added

• PipeASIO Manager’s Installations tab discovers Faugus, native/Flatpak Bottles, and explicitly selected custom Wine prefixes. It downloads checksum-verified official driver releases and supports install, update, repair, check, and removal through each prefix’s own runner.
• Reversible prefix file, registry, launcher-environment, and Flatpak permission changes. Runtime checks require native-library loading and a PipeWire connection without starting audio playback. Failed checks restore the preceding installation.
• Native C++ pipeasio-manage CLI shared with the Qt GUI, manager-only CMake builds with BUILD_DRIVER=OFF, and an independent AppImage bundling the required native libraries and prebuilt installation probes. Driver releases include machine-readable artifact checksums and native-library requirements.
• ARM64 driver tarball (#23): the tagged release workflow builds pipeasio-<tag>-debian-aarch64.tar.gz on Debian stable, with the driver, the pipeasio-manage CLI and the aarch64 installation probe, and merges the two per-architecture manifests into one pipeasio-release.json whose artifacts array holds both the x86_64 and the aarch64 entry. There is no ARM64 AppImage.

Changed

• The settings panel’s desktop and window name is PipeASIO Manager. Existing settings and monitoring remain available.
• The AppImage includes Qt desktop-portal appearance integration and defaults to Fusion widgets, using system colors and the desktop’s light/dark preference without bundling the KDE/Darkly framework stack. Theme environment overrides are restored before launching Wine or launcher tools.
• The manager is architecture-generic (#23): release listing, download verification, install, check and removal derive the Wine module directories and the expected PE/ELF machines from the host architecture, so an aarch64 host uses the aarch64-windows/aarch64-unix pair instead of the x86_64 one. Existing x86_64 manifests keep validating unchanged.

Downloads

• pipeasio-manager-v1.8.0-x86_64.AppImage: native manager with Qt, PipeWire, yaml-cpp and libarchive bundled. No driver build or interpreter required.
• pipeasio-v1.8.0-archlinux-x86_64.tar.gz: Arch/CachyOS driver binaries and manager files.
• pipeasio-v1.8.0-debian-aarch64.tar.gz: Debian stable ARM64 driver binaries and manager files. There is no ARM64 AppImage: run bin/pipeasio-manage from this tarball, or build the GUI from source.
• pipeasio-release.json: checksums, native library requirements and Wine SDK metadata. Runtime compatibility is checked in the selected launcher.
