<h1>Blinker - Priority</h1>
<p>
The priority module is used to select one of several streams.
The selection is done on a priority basis.
Among all streams providing a frame, the one with the highest priority
is chosen.
</p>
<h2>Configuration</h2>
<p>
The configuration of the priority module with name <code>NAME</code>
is located in the <code>priority/NAME</code> subdirectory.
</p>
<h3>Input List</h3>
<p>
The inputs to be possibly selected are configured in the
<code>inputs</code> subdirectory.
Each input is configured in an own subdirectory in <code>inputs</code>.
E.g. the configurations for inputs with names <code>000lowprio</code>
and <code>999highprio</code> reside in subdirectories
<code>inputs/000lowprio</code> and <code>inputs/999highprio</code>
respectively.
All inputs are assigned a priority according to their alphanumerical
order, i.e. <code>999highprio</code> is selected over
<code>000lowprio</code> if both provide a frame.
</p>
<p>
The configuration inside an input subdirectory consists of the following
settings:
</p>
<h4>Input Stream</h4>
<p>
The file <code>instream</code> contains the name of the stream to
read for this input.
</p>
<h3>Output Stream</h3>
<p>
The file <code>outstream</code> contains the name of the stream to
send the frames to.
