Description-en: audio dispatching library (development files)
This C library provides an sink-based API for decoding and encoding audio.
It is intended to be used as a backend for music player applications, however
it may also be used as a backend for any audio processing utility.
.
Features:
* Uses libav for decoding and encoding.
* Add and remove entries on a playlist for gapless playback.
* Supports idempotent pause, play, and seek.
* Per-playlist-item gain adjustment so you can implement loudness compensation
without audio glitches.
* Read and write metadata tags.
* Extensible sink-based interface. A sink provides resampling and keeps its
buffer full. This package contains the raw sink which provides
reference-counted raw audio buffers. Other sinks are built on top of this
one.
* Thread-safe.
.
This package contains the development files.
