.SH DESCRIPTION
-sendiso takes the dump file \fIFILE\fR as generated by \fBdumpiso\fR(1),
-extracts the packets and sends them as they were received (in the same order,
-with the same channel numbers) as fast as possible - timing of the original dump
-is not preserved.

-This program does not allocate any isochronous resources but just starts
