/*! \page playout_page Play-out (jitter buffering)
\section playout_page_sec_1 What does it do?
The play-out module provides a static or dynamic length buffer for received frames of
audio or video data. It's goal is to maximise the receiver's tolerance of jitter in the
timing of the received frames.

Dynamic buffers are generally good for speech, since they adapt to provide the smallest delay
consistent with a low rate of packets arriving too late to be used. For things like FoIP and
MoIP, a static length of buffer is normally necessary. Any attempt to elastically change the
buffer length would wreck a modem's data flow.
