opus-tools 0.2
Sep 18, 2018
In this release the Opus decoder opusdec has been converted to use the
opusfile library, and the Opus encoder opusenc has been converted to
use the libopusenc library. These libraries make it easy to robustly
read and write Ogg Opus audio files, and enable some new features.
opusdec enhancements include:
* Read directly from http or https sources
* New option --force-stereo will force stereo output
* Improved support for chained input files with differing sample rate
or channel count
* A summary is displayed for METADATA_BLOCK_PICTURE tags rather than
displaying the base64-encoded data
opusenc enhancements include:
* Delayed decision support allows the encoder to look ahead up to two
seconds in order to improve encoding decisions
* The options --music and --speech can be used to tune low bitrate
audio for music or speech, overriding automatic detection
* The option --no-phase-inv disables the use of phase inversion for
intensity stereo, which can be useful for streams that are likely
to be downmixed to mono after decoding
* New --tracknumber shortcut for setting tracknumber metadata
Additionally:
* The opusinfo utility can display the demixing matrix from Ogg Opus
files using ambisonics channel mapping family 3
* The experimental opusrtp tool supports new options to specify RTP
payload type, Ogg Opus output file, original sample rate, and
number of channels, and supports improved transmit timing,
arbitrary network devices, and IPv6
* Numerous bug fixes are also included
