Check the clock difference between the host running para_server
and the local host running para_audiod that many times before
starting any stream I/0. Set this to non-zero for non-local
- setups if the clocks of these two hosts are not syncronized
+ setups if the clocks of these two hosts are not synchronized
by ntp or similar.

- Playing udp streams also requires manual filter configuration
- because the output of the udp receiver must be fed into the
- fecdec filter first to produce a stream which can be decoded
- by the appropriate decoder (mp3dec, oggdec, aacdec). In other
- words, the fecdec filter must be specified as the first filter
- of the filter chain for any udp stream.

+ For http streams, only a single filter per audio format,
+ the decoder for that format, is activated. On the other hand,
+ since udp and dccp streams are sent fec-encoded by para_server,
+ the client side must feed the output of the receiver into
+ the fecdec filter first. Therefore the default for udp and
