MAD is a high-quality MPEG audio decoder. It currently supports MPEG 1 as
|
|
well as the MPEG 2 extension to Lower Sampling Frequencies. All three
|
|
audio layers (Layer I, Layer II, and Layer III aka 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 support the so-called
|
|
MPEG 2.5 format.
|
|
|
|
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)
