all audio codecs (cook,atrk,14_4,28_8,dnet,sipr) have the same interface, but i have only analyzed the cook codec audio properties 00 short text/description of the format (bitrate, when to use) 01 avg. bytes/sec output 02 ulong: ? ulong: samples per second ushort: bits/sample ushort: number of channels 03 constant 2 04 long description 05 constant 1 (always?) 06 ulong: block align (input frame for RADecode) 07 string: minimum player version 08 n/a 09 n/a 0A n/a 0B n/a 0C n/a 0D ? 0E ? 0F ? 10 ? 11 ? 12 ? 13 min. output buffer size? max. number of samples? 14 ? functions: ulong result=RAOpenCodec2(ra_main_t *raMain); ulong result=RAInitDecoder(ra_main_t *raMain, p2); p2=? void *GetRAFlavorProperty(ra_main_t *raMain, ulong flavor, ulong property, short *property_length_in_bytes); returns property data for a specific data ulong RADecode(ra_main_t *raMain, char *input_buffer, ulong input_buffer_size, char *output_buffer, ulong *decoded_bytes, ulong p6=-1); RAFreeDecoder(ra_main_t *); RACloseCodec(ra_main_t *); ulong RASetFlavor(ra_main_t *ra_main, ulong flavor); a flavor is an entry in the list of available format variations like bitrate, number of channels, decoding algorithm, and so on
