[ale] Multiplexing streaming audio?

[Greg Freemyer]

Bob,

I helped on a commercial project along those lines 15 years ago. (Very
proprietary)

Anyway your question got me googling and I found what looks to be one
example pretty quickly.

I only spent a couple minutes looking at it, but for at least one
stream it looks like you could set the input to a remote network
stream and then output a local multicast stream.

If that can be scaled up to multiple simultaneous, your in business.
