Hi, I'm a little bit confused. Is this the example I should be working with http://zguide.zeromq.org/php:chapter3#ROUTER-to-DEALER-Routing ? It seems that I'm only able to send messages to the clients (recording devices) but not the other way around.
The next example I looked at was http://zguide.zeromq.org/php:chapter3#Asynchronous-Client-Server ? Which looks awful complicated. Are the extra worker threads on the server side really necessary? I want to keep it as simple as possible. By the way, I'm using python as the programming language. Do you have any hints/examples/documentation pointers?
