  Description     : realtime audio over IP

trx is a simple toolset for broadcasting live audio from Linux. It sends 
and receives encoded audio over IP networks, via a soundcard or audio 
interface.

It can be used for point-to-point audio links or multicast, eg. private 
transmitter links for a radio station or other live audio distribution. 
In contrast to traditional streaming, high quality wideband audio (such 
as music) can be sent with low-latency, typically as low as a few 
milliseconds, and incredibly fast recovery from dropouts.

It works favourable as a replacement for traditional ISDN lines and 
hardware ISDN codecs.

Features include:

* Very simple to set up
* Low latency with fast recovery from dropouts
* Full control over latency and buffers
* Supports IPv4 and IPv6, including multicast
