     34  *
     35  * \section overv_sec Overview
     36  *
     37  * The sample cache provides a simple way of overcoming high network latencies
     38  * and reducing bandwidth. Instead of streaming a sound precisely when it
     39  * should be played, it is stored on the server and only the command to start
     40  * playing it needs to be sent.
     41  *
     42  * \section create_sec Creation
     43  *
     44  * To create a sample, the normal stream API is used (see \ref streams). The
     45  * function pa_stream_connect_upload() will make sure the stream is stored as
     46  * a sample on the server.
     47  *
     48  * To complete the upload, pa_stream_finish_upload() is called and the sample
     49  * will receive the same name as the stream. If the upload should be aborted,
     50  * simply call pa_stream_disconnect().
     51  *
     52  * \section play_sec Playing samples
     53  *
     54  * To play back a sample, simply call pa_context_play_sample():
     55  *
     56  * \code
     57  * pa_operation *o;
     58  *
     59  * o = pa_context_play_sample(my_context,
     60  *                            "sample2",       // Name of my sample
     61  *                            NULL,            // Use default sink
     62  *                            PA_VOLUME_NORM,  // Full volume
     63  *                            NULL,            // Don't need a callback
     64  *                            NULL
     65  *                            );
     66  * if (o)
     67  *     pa_operation_unref(o);
     68  * \endcode
     69  *
     70  * \section rem_sec Removing samples
     71  *
     72  * When a sample is no longer needed, it should be removed on the server to
     73  * save resources. The sample is deleted using pa_context_remove_sample().
