xmms-shn provides playback support for shorten (.shn) files in
|
|
XMMS. Real-time seeking support is provided for .shn files that
|
|
have accompanying seek tables generated by shorten 3.x. Otherwise,
|
|
seeking is not supported.
|
|
|
|
Wayne Stielau has extended shorten 2.3 to support the creation of
|
|
seek tables. Seek tables are simply descriptions of the internal
|
|
state of the shorten algorithm at specific points in the decompression.
|
|
This allows a modified shorten decoder to restore the decoder state
|
|
of the shorten algorithm for a point at (or very close to) the
|
|
desired seek point.
|
|
|
|
The current implementation creates a seek table entry once every
|
|
25600 samples. For 'CD-quality' WAVE data (44100 samples/sec),
|
|
this provides a granularity of 1 seek table entry per 25600/44100
|
|
= 0.58 seconds, more than what is needed by either XMMS or WinAmp.
