RustBAN is a lightweight desktop app for VBAN on PipeWire.

It focuses only on VBAN configuration and avoids unrelated mixer features.
You can create and edit VBAN send/receive streams, save settings, and generate PipeWire fragments directly from the UI.

Features

• VBAN Send management
• VBAN Recv management
• Per-stream settings:
  • IP / port
  • stream name
  • audio format, sample rate, channels
  • node name / description
  • node.always-process
• Config persistence in TOML
• One-click PipeWire fragment generation
• Optional PipeWire user-service restart
