Thanks for the address! It looks nice.

Buffer

"First of all one desirable feature would be to also store the incoming data into a file as well as passing it along to the handler..."

If a stream is like the real stream or little river, then a buffer should be like a pond or little lake.

If you get large chunks of data and you dossify the constant output of it, you have a buffer...

Perhaps, just by reading from the recorded file, instead of piping, it might work as a buffer.

As the author says, it is like the 'look ahead' of car's cd players.

How could you do this? Well, you'ld better try and you'ld learn a lot in the meantime. After that, instead of using your small experience, I bet that you would be able to find a good buffering .PM at cpan.

But, remember that most mp3 applications, have their own buffer. Like Winamp, that you can tune up at the config. Read about it, also. I remember reading that it works better with a small buffer (measured in seconds).
