+ * The live adder allows to mix several streams into one by adding the data.
+ * Mixed data is clamped to the min/max values of the data format.
+ *
+ * Unlike the adder, the liveadder mixes the streams according the their
+ * timestamps and waits for some milli-seconds before trying doing the mixing.
