It doesn’t need to be a separate LAN. But using a dedicated LAN helps to keep extraneous traffic from delaying time sensitive audio packets.

ETH-68 isn’t running PipeWire, or Linux. Maybe I don’t understand your question.

Not sure what you mean by realtime vs buffered. Care to elaborate?

I currently have a setup with a Raspberry Pi (alpine+pipewire+dac) to stream audio over the network.

This enables me the watch video with no latency problems, because it's embedded in the audio stack (buffered). That's why I was wondering which problem gets solved with this project.

But now I understand that this is for concerts not for some audiophile multi room setup.
