totalPlayoutDelay
media-playoutinboundaudio
The total time, in seconds, that this stream has spent in each quality limitation state.
Description
Real number; in seconds
When audio samples are pulled by the playout device, this counter is incremented with the estimated delay of the playout path for that audio sample. The playout delay includes the delay from being emitted to the actual time of playout on the device. This metric can be used together with media-playout.totalSamplesCount to calculate the average playout delay per sample.

Notes
- This is an accumulator
- We will usually be more interested in the graph of Calculations[media-playout.totalPlayoutDelay/media-playout.totalSamplesCount]
- Our desire is for this value to be as low as possible
