.SH NAME
snapserver - Snapcast server
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBsnapserver\fR [\fIOPTION\fR]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
Snapcast is a multiroom client-server audio player, where all clients are
time synchronized with the server to play perfectly synced audio. It's not a
standalone player, but an extension that turns your existing audio player into
a Sonos-like multiroom solution.
.br
The server's audio input is a named pipe `/tmp/snapfifo`. All data that is fed
into this file will be send to the connected clients. One of the most generic
ways to use Snapcast is in conjunction with the music player daemon or Mopidy,
which can be configured to use a named pipe as audio output.
