<html> <head> <title>Blinker - Priority</title> </head> <body> <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. </p> </body> </html>
