;;; video-audio-recording-devices.el --- PulseAudio device discovery for recording -*- lexical-binding: t; coding: utf-8; -*-

;; Author: Craig Jennings <c@cjennings.net>

;;; Commentary:
;;
;; Layer: 4 (Optional).
;; Category: D.
;; Load shape: library.
;; Top-level side effects: none (defuns only).
;; Runtime requires: subr-x, seq.
;; Direct test load: yes.
;;
;; Base layer of video-audio-recording: PulseAudio source and sink
;; discovery, the pactl output parsers, device labeling and sort/status
;; helpers for completing-read, and the lookup predicates used to validate
;; a configured device.  Pure string and shell-query helpers with no
;; dependency on recording state, configuration, or the capture engine, so
;; the engine and command layers build on it.
