@chapter Description
 | 
						|
@c man begin DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The libswresample library performs highly optimized audio resampling,
 | 
						|
rematrixing and sample format conversion operations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Specifically, this library performs the following conversions:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@itemize
 | 
						|
@item
 | 
						|
@emph{Resampling}: is the process of changing the audio rate, for
 | 
						|
example from a high sample rate of 44100Hz to 8000Hz. Audio
 | 
						|
conversion from high to low sample rate is a lossy process. Several
 | 
						|
resampling options and algorithms are available.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@item
 | 
						|
@emph{Format conversion}: is the process of converting the type of
 | 
						|
samples, for example from 16-bit signed samples to unsigned 8-bit or
 | 
						|
float samples. It also handles packing conversion, when passing from
 | 
						|
packed layout (all samples belonging to distinct channels interleaved
 | 
						|
in the same buffer), to planar layout (all samples belonging to the
 | 
						|
same channel stored in a dedicated buffer or "plane").
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@item
 | 
						|
@emph{Rematrixing}: is the process of changing the channel layout, for
 | 
						|
example from stereo to mono. When the input channels cannot be mapped
 | 
						|
to the output streams, the process is lossy, since it involves
 | 
						|
different gain factors and mixing.
 | 
						|
@end itemize
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Various other audio conversions (e.g. stretching and padding) are
 | 
						|
enabled through dedicated options.
