+ * The player thread controls the playback.  It acts as a bridge
+ * between the decoder thread and the output thread(s): it receives
+ * #music_chunk objects from the decoder, optionally mixes them
+ * (cross-fading), applies software volume, and sends them to the
+ * audio outputs via audio_output_all_play().
+ *
+ * It is controlled by the main thread (the playlist code), see
+ * player_control.h.  The playlist enqueues new songs into the player
+ * thread and sends it commands.
+ *
+ * The player thread itself does not do any I/O.  It synchronizes with
+ * other threads via #GMutex and #GCond objects, and passes
+ * #music_chunk instances around in #music_pipe objects.
