+/// @brief **Audio engine functions**\n

+/// to play their own individual audio stream in Kodi.
+///
+/// Using @ref cpp_kodi_audioengine_CAEStream "kodi::audioengine::CAEStream",
+/// a class can be created in this regard, about which the necessary stream data and
+/// information are given to Kodi.
+///
+/// Via @ref kodi::audioengine::GetCurrentSinkFormat(), the audio formats currently
+/// processed in Kodi can be called up beforehand in order to adapt your own stream
+/// to them.
+///
+/// However, the created stream can also differ from this because Kodi changes
+/// it to suit it.

+/// @brief \cpp_class{ kodi::addon::CInstancePVRClient }
+/// **PVR client add-on instance**
+///
+/// Kodi features powerful [Live TV](https://kodi.wiki/view/Live_TV) and
+/// [video recording (DVR/PVR)](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_video_recorder)
+/// abilities using a very flexible distributed application structure. That is, by
+/// leveraging other existing third-party
+/// [PVR backend applications](https://kodi.wiki/view/PVR_backend) or
+/// [DVR devices](https://kodi.wiki/view/PVR_backend)
+/// that specialize in receiving television signals and also support the same type
+/// of [client–server model](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/client%E2%80%93server_model)
+/// which Kodi uses, (following a [frontend-backend](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Front_and_back_ends)
+/// design principle for [separation of concerns](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_concerns)),
+/// these PVR features in Kodi allow you to watch Live TV, listen to radio, view an EPG TV-Guide
+/// and schedule recordings, and also enables many other TV related features, all using
+/// Kodi as your primary interface once the initial pairing connection and
+/// configuration have been done.
+///
+/// @note It is very important to understand that with "Live TV" in the reference
+/// to PVR in Kodi, we do not mean [streaming video](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_media)
+/// from the internet via websites providing [free content](https://kodi.wiki/view/Free_content)
+/// or online services such as Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and similar, no matter if that
+/// content is actually streamed live or not. If that is what you are looking for
+/// then you might want to look into [Video Addons](https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-ons)
+/// for Kodi instead, (which again is not the same as the "PVR" or "Live TV" we
+/// discuss in this article), but remember that [Kodi does not provide any video
+/// content or video streaming services](https://kodi.wiki/view/Free_content).
+///
+/// The use of the PVR is based on the @ref CInstancePVRClient.
+///
+/// Include the header @ref PVR.h "#include <kodi/addon-instance/PVR.h>"
+/// to use this class.
+///
+///
+/// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+///
+/// Here is an example of what the <b>`addon.xml.in`</b> would look like for an PVR addon:
+///
+/// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.xml}
+/// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+/// <addon
+///   id="pvr.myspecialnamefor"
+///   version="1.0.0"
+///   name="My special PVR addon"
+///   provider-name="Your Name">
+///   <requires>@ADDON_DEPENDS@</requires>
+///   <extension
+///     point="kodi.pvrclient"
+///     library_@PLATFORM@="@LIBRARY_FILENAME@"/>
+///   <extension point="xbmc.addon.metadata">
+///     <summary lang="en_GB">My PVR addon addon</summary>
+///     <description lang="en_GB">My PVR addon description</description>
+///     <platform>@PLATFORM@</platform>
+///   </extension>
+/// </addon>
+/// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+///
+///
+/// At <b>`<extension point="kodi.pvrclient" ...>`</b> the basic instance definition is declared, this is intended to identify the addon as an PVR and to see its supported types:
+/// | Name | Description
+/// |------|----------------------
+/// | <b>`point`</b> | The identification of the addon instance to inputstream is mandatory <b>`kodi.pvrclient`</b>. In addition, the instance declared in the first <b>`<extension ... />`</b> is also the main type of addon.
+/// | <b>`library_@PLATFORM@`</b> | The runtime library used for the addon. This is usually declared by cmake and correctly displayed in the translated `addon.xml`.
+///
+///
+/// @remark For more detailed description of the <b>`addon.xml`</b>, see also https://kodi.wiki/view/Addon.xml.

+/// The peripheral add-ons provides access to many joystick and gamepad

+/// virtual system. This is necessary because different retro systems usually
+/// have different button layouts. A controller configuration utility is also
+/// in the works.

+/// @addtogroup cpp_kodi_addon_screensaver
+/// @brief \cpp_class{ kodi::addon::CInstanceScreensaver }
+/// **Screensaver add-on instance**
+///
+/// A screensaver is a Kodi addon that fills the screen with moving images or
+/// patterns when the computer is not in use. Initially designed to prevent
+/// phosphor burn-in on CRT and plasma computer monitors (hence the name),
+/// screensavers are now used primarily for entertainment, security or to
+/// display system status information.
+///
+/// Include the header @ref Screensaver.h "#include <kodi/addon-instance/ScreenSaver.h>"
+/// to use this class.
+///
+/// This interface allows the creating of screensavers for Kodi, based upon
+/// **DirectX** or/and **OpenGL** rendering with `C++` code.
+///
+/// The interface is small and easy usable. It has three functions:
+///
+/// * <b><c>Start()</c></b> - Called on creation
+/// * <b><c>Render()</c></b> - Called at render time
+/// * <b><c>Stop()</c></b> - Called when the screensaver has no work
+///
+/// Additionally, there are several \ref cpp_kodi_addon_screensaver_CB "other functions"
+/// available in which the child class can ask about the current hardware,
+/// including the device, display and several other parts.
+///
+/// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+///
+/// Here is an example of what the <b>`addon.xml.in`</b> would look like for an
+/// screensaver addon:
+///
+/// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.xml}
+/// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
+/// <addon
+///   id="screensaver.myspecialnamefor"
+///   version="1.0.0"

+///     <description lang="en_GB">My screensaver addon description</description>
+///     <platform>@PLATFORM@</platform>
+///   </extension>
+/// </addon>
+/// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+///
+/// Description to screensaver related addon.xml values:

+/// |:------------------------------|----------------------------------------
+/// | <b>`point`</b>                | Addon type specification<br>At all addon types and for this kind always <b>"xbmc.ui.screensaver"</b>.
+/// | <b>`library_@PLATFORM@`</b>   | Sets the used library name, which is automatically set by cmake at addon build.
+///
+/// @remark For more detailed description of the <b>`addon.xml`</b>, see also https://kodi.wiki/view/Addon.xml.
+///

+/// **Visualization add-on instance**\n
+/// [Music visualization](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_visualization),
+/// or music visualisation, is a feature in Kodi that generates animated
+/// imagery based on a piece of music. The imagery is usually generated and
+/// rendered in real time synchronized to the music.
+///
+/// Visualization techniques range from simple ones (e.g., a simulation of an
+/// oscilloscope display) to elaborate ones, which often include a plurality
+/// of composited effects. The changes in the music's loudness and frequency
+/// spectrum are among the properties used as input to the visualization.
+///
+/// Include the header @ref Visualization.h "#include <kodi/addon-instance/Visualization.h>"
+/// to use this class.
+///
+/// This interface allows the creation of visualizations for Kodi, based upon
+/// **DirectX** or/and **OpenGL** rendering with `C++` code.
+///
+/// Additionally, there are several @ref cpp_kodi_addon_visualization_CB "other functions"
+/// available in which the child class can ask about the current hardware,
+/// including the device, display and several other parts.
+///

+///   1. scalar *[1]*
+///   2. analog stick
+///   3. accelerometer
+///   4. motor
+///   5. relative pointer *[2]*
+///   6. absolute pointer
+///   7. wheel
+///   8. throttle
+///   9. keyboard key
+///
+/// *[1]* All three driver primitives (buttons, hats and axes) have a state that
+///       can be represented using a single scalar value. For this reason,
+///       features that map to a single primitive are called "scalar features".
+///
+/// *[2]* Relative pointers are similar to analog sticks, but they use
+///       relative distances instead of positions.

+///  "successful adaptation based on the 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz "
+///  "by L. Frank Baum. The film stars Judy Garland as Dorothy Gale. The film"

+///  "\n"
+///  "Notable for its use of Technicolor, fantasy storytelling, musical score and "
+///  "unusual characters, over the years it has become an icon of American popular "
+///  "culture. It was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture but "
+///  "lost to Gone with the Wind. It did win in two other categories including Best "
+///  "Original Song for \"Over the Rainbow\". However, the film was a box office "
+///  "disappointment on its initial release, earning only $3,017,000 on a $2,777,000 "
+///  "budget, despite receiving largely positive reviews. It was MGM's most "
+///  "expensive production at that time, and did not completely recoup the studio's "
+///  "investment and turn a profit until theatrical re-releases starting in 1949.\n"
+///  "\n"
+///  "The 1956 broadcast television premiere of the film on CBS re-introduced the "
+///  "film to the wider public and eventually made the presentation an annual "
+///  "tradition, making it one of the most known films in cinema history. The "
+///  "film was named the most-viewed motion picture on television syndication by "
+///  "the Library of Congress who also included the film in its National Film "
+///  "Registry in its inaugural year in 1989. Designation on the registry calls "
+///  "for efforts to preserve it for being \"culturally, historically, and "
+///  "aesthetically significant\". It is also one of the few films on UNESCO's "
+///  "Memory of the World Register.\n"
+///  "\n"
+///  "The Wizard of Oz is often ranked on best-movie lists in critics' and public "
+///  "polls. It is the source of many quotes referenced in modern popular culture. "
+///  "It was directed primarily by Victor Fleming (who left production to take "
+///  "over direction on the troubled Gone with the Wind production). Noel Langley, "
+///  "Florence Ryerson and Edgar Allan Woolf received credit for the screenplay, "
+///  "but there were uncredited contributions by others. The songs were written "
+///  "by Edgar \"Yip\" Harburg (lyrics) and Harold Arlen (music). The incidental "
