MAD (libmad) is a high-quality MPEG audio decoder. It currently supports MPEG-1
|
|
and the MPEG-2 extension to Lower Sampling Frequencies, as well as the so-called
|
|
MPEG 2.5 format. All three audio layers (Layer I, Layer II, and Layer III a.k.a.
|
|
MP3) are fully implemented.
|
|
|
|
MAD does not yet support MPEG-2 multichannel audio (although it should be
|
|
backward compatible with such streams) nor does it currently support AAC.
|
|
|
|
MAD has the following special features:
|
|
- 24-bit PCM output
|
|
- 100% fixed-point (integer) computation
|
|
- completely new implementation based on the ISO/IEC standards
|
|
- distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)
|
|
|
|
Because MAD provides full 24-bit PCM output, applications using MAD are able to
|
|
produce high quality audio. Even when the output device supports only 16-bit
|
|
PCM, applications can use the extra resolution to increase the audible dynamic
|
|
range through the use of dithering or noise shaping.
