Before I enter the main loop, I call startStream. However, while the physics and graphics stuff runs in the main loop (on the same thread that I made the call to startStream in), my callback for processing the stream never gets called. I've discovered, though, if I just call startStream then wait for user input (like in the duplex example), my callback DOES get called. <br>
