PyAudio provides Python bindings for PortAudio, the cross-platform
audio I/O library. With PyAudio, you can easily use Python to play and
record audio on a variety of platforms.  PyAudio is inspired by:

* pyPortAudio/fastaudio: Python bindings for PortAudio v18 API.
* tkSnack: cross-platform sound toolkit for Tcl/Tk and Python.

               See :py:class:`PaMacCoreStreamInfo`.

        :param stream_callback: Specifies a callback function for
            *non-blocking* (callback) operation.  Default is
            ``None``, which indicates *blocking* operation (i.e.,
            :py:func:`Stream.read` and :py:func:`Stream.write`).  To use
            non-blocking operation, specify a callback that conforms
            to the following signature:

            .. code-block:: python

               callback(in_data,      # recorded data if input=True; else None
                        frame_count,  # number of frames
                        time_info,    # dictionary
                        status_flags) # PaCallbackFlags

            ``time_info`` is a dictionary with the following keys:
            ``input_buffer_adc_time``, ``current_time``, and
            ``output_buffer_dac_time``; see the PortAudio
            documentation for their meanings.  ``status_flags`` is one
            of |PaCallbackFlags|.

            The callback must return a tuple:

            .. code-block:: python

                (out_data, flag)

            ``out_data`` is a byte array whose length should be the
            (``frame_count * channels * bytes-per-channel``) if
            ``output=True`` or ``None`` if ``output=False``.  ``flag``
            must be either :py:data:`paContinue`, :py:data:`paComplete` or
            :py:data:`paAbort` (one of |PaCallbackReturnCodes|).
            When ``output=True`` and ``out_data`` does not contain at
            least ``frame_count`` frames, :py:data:`paComplete` is
            assumed for ``flag``.

            **Note:** ``stream_callback`` is called in a separate
            thread (from the main thread).  Exceptions that occur in
            the ``stream_callback`` will:

            1. print a traceback on standard error to aid debugging,
            2. queue the exception to be thrown (at some point) in
               the main thread, and
            3. return `paAbort` to PortAudio to stop the stream.

            **Note:** Do not call :py:func:`Stream.read` or
            :py:func:`Stream.write` if using non-blocking operation.

            **See:** PortAudio's callback signature for additional
            details: http://portaudio.com/docs/v19-doxydocs/portaudio_8h.html#a8a60fb2a5ec9cbade3f54a9c978e2710
