-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"force startup"
-flag off
-details="
- If this flag is not given, para_audiod refuses to start if the
- well-known socket file (see the --socket option) already exists
- because this usually means that para_audiod is already running
- and listening on that socket. After a crash or if para_audiod
- received a SIGKILL signal, a stale socket file might remain and
- you have to use --force once to force startup of para_audiod.
-"

-option "mode" m
-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"startup mode"
-string typestr="mode"
-default="on"
-optional
-details="
- Para_audiod supports three modes of operation: On, off and
- standby (sb). This option selects the mode that should be
- used on startup. If para_audiod operates in \"on\" mode, it
- will connect to para_server in order to receive its status
- information. If para_server announces the availability of an
- audio stream, para_audiod will automatically download, decode
- and play the audio stream according to the given stream I/O
- options, see below.
-
- In \"standby\" mode, para_audiod will only receive the
- status information from para_server but will not download
- the audio stream.
-
- In \"off\" mode, para_audiod does not connect para_server at
- all, but still listens on the local socket for connections.

-option "socket" s
-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"well-known socket"
-string typestr="filename"
-optional
-details="
- Para_audiod uses a \"well-known\" socket to listen
- on for connections from para_audioc. This socket is a
- special file in the file system; its location defaults to
- /var/paraslash/audiod_sock.<host_name>.
-
- para_audioc, the client program used to connect to para_audiod,
- opens this socket in order to talk to para_audiod. If the
- default value for para_audiod is changed, para_audioc must be
- instructed to use also \"filename\" for connecting para_audiod.

-
-option "user_allow" -
-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"allow this uid"
-int typestr="uid"
-default="-1"
-optional
-multiple
-details="
- Allow the user identified by \"uid\" to connect to para_audiod.
- May be specified multiple times. If not specified at all,
- all users are allowed to connect.
-
- This feature requires unix socket credentials and is currently
- only supported on Linux systems. On other operating systems,
- the option is silently ignored and all local users are allowed
- to connect to para_audiod.

-option "clock_diff_count" -
-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"sync clock on startup"
-int typestr="count"
-default="0"
-optional
-details="
- 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 synchronized
- by ntp or similar.

-string typestr="receiver_spec"

-optional
-multiple
-details="
- This option may be given multiple times, for each audio format
- separately. If multiple definitions for an audio format are
- given, the first one is selected.
-
- The \"receiver_spec\" consists of an audio format specifier
- and one or more receiver arguments, separated by a colon.
-
- The audio format specifier is a regular expression which
- specifies the set of audio formats for which this option
- should apply.
-
- If any receiver options are present, the whole receiver
- argument must be quoted:
-
- -r 'mp3:http -i my.host.org -p 8009'
-
- Since a single dot '.' matches the name of any audio format,
- specifying '.' instead of 'mp3' above activates the http
- receiver for all audio formats.
-
-"
-
-option "filter" f
-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"Specify the filter configuration."
-string typestr = "filter_spec"
-optional
-multiple
-details = "
- This option may be given multiple times. The \"filter_spec\"
- consists of an audio format specifier (see above), the name
- of the filter, and any options for that filter. Note that
- order matters.
-
- The compiled-in defaults apply to all audio formats for which
- no --filter option was given. These defaults depend on the
- receiver being used.
-
- For HTTP streams, only the decoder for the current audio
- format is activated. UDP and DCCP streams, on the other
- hand, are sent FEC-encoded by para_server. In order to play
- such streams, the receiver output must be FEC-decoded first,
- i.e. fed to the fecdec filter. Therefore the default for UDP
- and DCCP streams is to activate the fecdec filter, followed
- by the decoding filter for the audio format.
-
- Examples:
-
- --filter 'mp3:mp3dec'
-
- --filter 'mp3|aac:compress --inertia 5 --damp 2'
-
- --filter '.:fecdec'

-option "stream_delay" -
-#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-"time for client sync"
-int typestr="milliseconds"
-default="200"
-optional
-details="
- Add the given amount of milliseconds to the stream start time
- announced by para_server and do not send data to the writer
- before that time (modulo clock difference).
-
- This is useful mainly for synchronizing the audio output of
- different clients.
