<div>More precisely: The "LIVE555 Streaming Media" libraries
use the (not so magical) world of events, whereby events (such as the
arrival of incoming data) is handled within a single-threaded event
loop.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The default event loop implementation
("BasicTaskScheduler", provided with the code) uses
"select()", but other implementations (i.e., other
subclasses of "TaskScheduler") could use other
mechanisms.</div>
