@c man begin DECODERS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Decoders are configured elements in Libav which allow the decoding of
 | 
						|
multimedia streams.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When you configure your Libav build, all the supported native decoders
 | 
						|
are enabled by default. Decoders requiring an external library must be enabled
 | 
						|
manually via the corresponding @code{--enable-lib} option. You can list all
 | 
						|
available decoders using the configure option @code{--list-decoders}.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can disable all the decoders with the configure option
 | 
						|
@code{--disable-decoders} and selectively enable / disable single decoders
 | 
						|
with the options @code{--enable-decoder=@var{DECODER}} /
 | 
						|
@code{--disable-decoder=@var{DECODER}}.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The option @code{-decoders} of the av* tools will display the list of
 | 
						|
enabled decoders.
 | 
						|

@chapter Audio Decoders

@c man begin AUDIO DECODERS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A description of some of the currently available audio decoders
 | 
						|
follows.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@section ac3
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
AC-3 audio decoder.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This decoder implements part of ATSC A/52:2010 and ETSI TS 102 366, as well as
 | 
						|
the undocumented RealAudio 3 (a.k.a. dnet).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@subsection AC-3 Decoder Options
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@table @option
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
@item -drc_scale @var{value}
 | 
						|
Dynamic Range Scale Factor. The factor to apply to dynamic range values
 | 
						|
from the AC-3 stream. This factor is applied exponentially.
 | 
						|
There are 3 notable scale factor ranges:
 | 
						|
@table @option
 | 
						|
@item drc_scale == 0
 | 
						|
DRC disabled. Produces full range audio.
 | 
						|
@item 0 < drc_scale <= 1
 | 
						|
DRC enabled.  Applies a fraction of the stream DRC value.
 | 
						|
Audio reproduction is between full range and full compression.
 | 
						|
@item drc_scale > 1
 | 
						|
DRC enabled. Applies drc_scale asymmetrically.
 | 
						|
Loud sounds are fully compressed.  Soft sounds are enhanced.
