+
+  This is a simple audio mixer (mp3audio mixer).
+  We assume disksrc1 is going to be in EOS while disksrc2 is still in !EOS
+
+
+.scheduling.
+
+  two chains are detected: disksrc1-effect-mixer-audiosink, 
+  disksrc2-effect-mixer-audiosink
+
+.eos.
+
+  disksrc1 has passed the last buffer in the _get function. with its next 
+  call to _get, it will return a NULL buffer and set the src pad to EOS.
+
+  the EOS call travels up till the mixer element because it has overridden
+  the handler. The first chain is disabled from the scheduler.
+
+  finally disksrc2 run into EOS, same procedure as with disksrc1, except
+  now the mixer also sets EOS to its src pad, chain2 becomes inactive too
+  and the bin fires EOS because there are no more chains to schedule.
   
+  somebody sets the location of disksrc1 to a new mp3 file, the srcpad 
+  is set to !EOS, chain1 is scheduled again, mixer is activated again too
+  and audio is playing again...
