+"""
+Captures samples into DRAM, then streams those to the host.
+
+Note: The --freq, --gain, and --antenna options can take a single value, which
+is applied to all channels, or a list of values which is applied to individual
+channels. Example:
+
+ replay_capture.py -f 1e9 -g 20 30 -c 0/Radio#0:0 0/Radio#0:1
+
+This will use two channels from Radio 0 with a common frequency of 1 GHz.
+The first channel will use a gain of 20 dB, and the second a gain of 30 dB.
+
+A note on hardware capabilities: When downloading data from DRAM onto the host,
+it is possible for the network interfaces to not be able to keep up with the
+data rates generated by the USRP, and packets will be dropped.
+
+If this happens, the following options may help:
+- Make sure the system configuration is set up for highest performance, e.g.
+ by adapting network driver settings (see also
+ https://kb.ettus.com/USRP_Host_Performance_Tuning_Tips_and_Tricks#Increasing_Ring_Buffers)
+- Fall back to a slower data rate, e.g., use 1 GbE instead of 10 or 100 GbE
