+      To simplify the diagram, I omitted connection setup, tally light
+      and recording control, and the internal sinks that haven't been
+      implemented yet.

+      All these interfaces have limited-length queues.  If a queue
+      fills up, frames have to be dropped - we must not block or use
+      unlimited memory!

+      The mixer clock thread maintains a frame clock at about 25 or
+      30&nbsp;Hz depending on the video system, constantly adjusted to
+      follow the audio source.
