Thanks very much from toronto, canada.... :)

Works perfectly, does exactly the thing i need.  One further extension to
the original question:
i have seen options for --sout-udp-caching value
how would i make the audio stream be less choppy when the network is more
busy than other times?
would a larger buffer (--sout-udp-caching  value) increase the quality (less
skips) in the sound?
