Editing Using Scream over LAN

== Introduction ==
In the event your Windows Guest does not require network isolation by traversing NAT (for security purposes) using Scream over a VirtIO Bridge will yield a overall better experience to using the IVSHMEM drivers. Setup is also simpler.

== Prerequisites & Dependencies  ==
Before setup can begin there are a few requirements.

=== Prerequisites ===
* The Guest needs to have a VirtIO Network Adapter installed. This includes:
** Creating a Bridged Network Adapter on the Host
** Passing the Bridged Network Adapter to the Guest
** Installing the [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/creating-windows-virtual-machines-using-virtio-drivers/#virtio-win-direct-downloads VirtIO drivers] on the Guest.

=== Dependencies ===
* We also require a few packages:
** <code>git</code>
** <code>libpulse-dev</code> (May already be installed.)
** <code>make</code> (Will already be installed if you've setup Looking Glass)

== Setup ==
For the most basic configuration Scream over LAN does not have much setup to it.

=== Installing Scream on the Windows Guest ===
How to [https://looking-glass.hostfission.com/wiki/Using_Scream#Configuring_the_windows_VM Install Scream on the Windows Guest] has already been covered. Do make sure after a restart that the default audio device has been set to Scream.

=== Installing Scream on the GNU/Linux Host ===
#Start by downloading Scream from the Github repository. <code>git clone https://github.com/duncanthrax/scream.git</code>
#Now navigate to the <code>scream/Receivers/linux/pulseaudio</code> directory and run <code>make</code>.
#Scream over LAN is now ready to use.

=== Running Scream ===
Scream only uses a small number of arguments to operate which can be viewed by running <code>./scream-pulse -h</code>:
<syntaxhighlight lang=text>
Usage: ./scream-pulse [-u] [-p <port>] [-i <iface>] [-g <group>]

         All command line options are optional. Default is to use
         multicast with group address 239.255.77.77, port 4010.

         -u          : Use unicast instead of multicast.
         -p <port>   : Use <port> instead of default port 4010
                       Applies to both multicast and unicast
         -i <iface>  : Use local interface <iface>. Either the IP
                       or the interface name can be specified. In
                       multicast mode, uses this interface for IGMP.
                       In unicast, binds to this interface only.
         -g <group>  : Multicast group address. Multicast mode only.
</syntaxhighlight>
However confirming that Scream is running on the Windows Guest it can be ran by simply pointing it to the Bridge accociated with the VM. Ex:<code>./scream-pulse -i bridge0</code>

If Scream successfully picks up the Guests broadcast the Terminal used to execute <code>scream-pulse</code> should have a similar output to the following:
<syntaxhighlight lang=text>
Switched format to sample rate 48000, sample size 32 and 2 channels.
</syntaxhighlight>
