Class PipeDecoder

java.lang.Object

be.tarsos.dsp.io.PipeDecoder

public class PipeDecoder
extends java.lang.Object

Decode audio files to PCM, mono, 16bits per sample, at any sample rate using an external program. By default avconv, provided by libav is used. Other command LineWavelet programs that are able to decode audio and pipe binary PCM samples to STDOUT are possible as well (ffmpeg, mplayer). On Debian: apt-get install libav-tools

This adds support for a lot of audio formats and video container formats with relatively little effort. Depending on the program used also http streams, rtpm streams, ... are supported as well.

To see which audio decoders are supported, check

avconv -decoders | grep -E "^A" | sort
