Normalmux

Normalmux is a software tool designed for multiplexing and demultiplexing data streams. It allows users to combine multiple input streams into a single output stream, and conversely, to separate a single input stream back into its original constituent streams. This process is commonly used in various computing applications, particularly in networking and signal processing, where efficient data handling is crucial.

The primary function of Normalmux is to facilitate the aggregation of data for transmission or storage and then to unpack it for subsequent processing. This can be beneficial for optimizing bandwidth usage or simplifying the management of complex data flows. The tool typically operates at a low level, dealing with raw data packets or byte sequences.

Its applications can range from real-time media streaming, where multiple audio and video feeds are combined for transmission, to scientific data acquisition, where various sensor readings are merged into a single data log. The underlying algorithms and protocols employed by Normalmux determine its specific capabilities and limitations regarding stream types, synchronization, and error handling. The open-source nature of some implementations allows for customization and integration into diverse system architectures.
