Vorbis is a general-purpose audio and music encoding format contemporary to
|
|
|
|
MPEG-4's AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike
|
|
|
|
the MPEG sponsored formats (and other proprietary formats such as RealAudio G2
|
|
|
|
and Windows' flavor of the month), the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to
|
|
|
|
the public domain. All the technical details are published and documented, and
|
|
|
|
any software entity may make full use of the format without royalty or patent
|
|
|
|
concerns.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This package contains utilities to encode and decode vorbis streams, and to
|
|
|
|
add comments to them.
