SDL_sound is a library that handles the decoding of several popular
|
||
|
sound file formats, such as .WAV and .MP3. It is meant to make the
|
||
|
programmer's sound playback tasks simpler. The programmer gives
|
||
|
SDL_sound a filename, or feeds it data directly from one of many
|
||
|
sources, and then reads the decoded waveform data back at their leisure.
|
||
|
If resource constraints are a concern, SDL_sound can process sound data
|
||
|
in programmer-specified blocks. Alternately, SDL_sound can decode a
|
||
|
whole sound file and hand back a single pointer to the whole waveform.
|
||
|
SDL_sound can also handle sample rate, audio format, and channel
|
||
|
conversion on-the-fly and behind-the-scenes, if the programmer desires.
