Package pbx-streamplayer: Information

This application is intended for use when a raw TCP stream is desired to be
used as a music on hold source for Asterisk.  Some devices are capable of
taking some kind of audio input and provide it as a raw TCP stream over the
network, which is what inspired someone to fund this to be written.
However, it would certainly be possible to write your own server application
to provide music over a TCP stream from a centralized location.
This application is quite simple.  It just reads the data from the TCP
stream and dumps it straight to stdout.  Due to the way Asterisk handles
music on hold sources, this application checks to make sure writing
to stdout will not be a blocking operation before doing so.  If so, the data
is just thrown away.  This ensures that the stream will continue to be
serviced, even if Asterisk is not currently using the source.
