TODO: More Documentation

Minimal Example:

// Callbacks
void started(void *myContext) {
    // Start capturing audio & video
}

void failed(void *myContext, caff_Result result) {
    // Handle error
    // Stop capturing if necessary
}


// Once on startup
caff_initialize("example", "1.0", caff_SeverityDebug, NULL);


// Starting a broadcast
caff_InstanceHandle instance = caff_createInstance();
caff_Result result = caff_signIn(instance, "Myuser", "|\\/|Yp455WYrd", NULL);
if (result != caff_ResultSuccess) return -1;
result = caff_startBroadcast(instance, &myContext, "My title!", caff_RatingNone, NULL, started, failed);


// On your video/audio capture thread(s)
caff_sendVideo(
    instance, caff_VideoFormatNv12, pixels, pixelBytes, width, height, caff_TimestampGenerate);
caff_sendAudio(instance, samples, 2);


// When it's over:
caff_endBroadcast(instance);
caff_freeInstance(&instance);
