Detailed Description

Audio sample format enumeration and related convenience functions.

Enumeration Type Documentation

Audio sample formats.

  • The data described by the sample format is always in native-endian order. Sample values can be expressed by native C types, hence the lack of a signed 24-bit sample format even though it is a common raw audio data format.
  • The floating-point formats are based on full volume being in the range [-1.0, 1.0]. Any values outside this range are beyond full volume level.
For planar sample formats, each audio channel is in a separate data plane, and linesize is the buffer size, in bytes, for a single plane. All data planes must be the same size. For packed sample formats, only the first data plane is used, and samples for each channel are interleaved. In this case, linesize is the buffer size, in bytes, for the 1 plane.

Function Documentation

const char* av_get_sample_fmt_name ( enum AVSampleFormat  sample_fmt)
enum AVSampleFormat av_get_sample_fmt ( const char *  name)

Return a sample format corresponding to name, or AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NONE on error.

enum AVSampleFormat av_get_alt_sample_fmt ( enum AVSampleFormat  sample_fmt,
int  planar 
)

Return the planar<->packed alternative form of the given sample format, or AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NONE on error.

If the passed sample_fmt is already in the requested planar/packed format, the format returned is the same as the input.

enum AVSampleFormat av_get_packed_sample_fmt ( enum AVSampleFormat  sample_fmt)

Get the packed alternative form of the given sample format.

If the passed sample_fmt is already in packed format, the format returned is the same as the input.

Returns
the packed alternative form of the given sample format or AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NONE on error.

enum AVSampleFormat av_get_planar_sample_fmt ( enum AVSampleFormat  sample_fmt)

Get the planar alternative form of the given sample format.

If the passed sample_fmt is already in planar format, the format returned is the same as the input.

Returns
the planar alternative form of the given sample format or AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NONE on error.

char* av_get_sample_fmt_string ( char *  buf,
int  buf_size,
enum AVSampleFormat  sample_fmt 
)

Generate a string corresponding to the sample format with sample_fmt, or a header if sample_fmt is negative.

Parameters
bufthe buffer where to write the string
buf_sizethe size of buf
sample_fmtthe number of the sample format to print the corresponding info string, or a negative value to print the corresponding header.
Returns
the pointer to the filled buffer or NULL if sample_fmt is unknown or in case of other errors
