As the udp sender has no idea about connected clients it
sends the audio file header periodically if necessary. This
- option is used to specify the duration of the interval between
- sending the header. Shorter values decrease the average time
- clients have to wait before being able to start playback,
- but this also increases the amount network traffic. Note
- that this affects only ogg vorbis streams as this is the only
- audio format that needs an audio file header.
+ option specifies the duration between subsequent headers are
+ sent. Smaller values decrease the average time clients have
+ to wait before starting playback, larger values decrease
+ network traffic.
+
+ Note that this affects only ogg/* and wma streams. Other
+ audio formats, including mp3, don't need an audio file header.
