-   * Synchronize received streams to the NTP clock. When the NTP clock is shared
-   * between the receivers and the senders (such as when using ntpd) this option
-   * can be used to synchronize receivers on multiple machines.

+   * buffers. When both the sender and receiver have sychronized
+   * running-time, i.e. when the clock and base-time is shared
+   * between the receivers and the and the senders, this option can be
