## TOML Files
This is how your files should be organised. Wherever your `__main__.py` file is located (after install this can be any location), `config` and `profiles` directories
should be in the same location.
Regarding profiles, a directory for each kind should hold the profile files and in each there can be any number of config files. Example, a config for streaming, a config for general listening/movie watching or any other type of config.

## Configs
### app.toml
Configure certain startup states for the app.
- `theme`
By default the app loads up the [Sun Valley light or dark theme](https://github.com/rdbende/Sun-Valley-ttk-theme) by @rdbende. When all 16 channels for Potato are labelled you may find the app becomes slower so you have the option to load up the app without any theme loaded. Simply set `enabled` to false and `mode` will take no effect.

### vban.toml
Configure as many vban connections as you wish. This allows the app to work over a LAN connection as well as with a local Voicemeeter installation.
For vban connections to work correctly VBAN TEXT incoming stream MUST be configured correctly on the remote machine. Both pcs ought to be connected to a local private network and should be able to ping one another.
## Profiles
Three example profiles are included with the package, one for each kind of Voicemeeter. Use these to configure parameter startup states. Any parameter supported by the underlying interfaces may be used. For a detailed description of parameter coverage see:

## Special Thanks
[Vincent Burel](https://github.com/vburel2018) for creating Voicemeeter, its SDK, the C Remote API and Streamer View app!

[Christian Volkmann](https://github.com/chvolkmann/voicemeeter-remote-python) for the detailed work that went into creating the underlying Remote API Python Interface.
Unfortunately, the Remote API Python Interface has `NOT` been open source licensed. I have raised an issue and asked directly and politely but so far no response. If a license is added in future I will update this section. Without an open source license there is no guarantee that in future this package may not be pulled down, without any notice.
