Since it's loss-less, does it really have to care what it's compressing? Seems easy enough to just provide "raw audio" support, where the user tells it what sample format to expect. Anyway, 'man flac' speaks of various options for raw files and encoding/decoding from/to stdin/stdout, so it does seem like there would be ways of using it on any sort of files... Haven't tried it, though. :-) -- //David Olofson - Developer, Artist, Open Source Advocate .--- Games, examples, libraries, scripting, sound, music, graphics ---. | http://olofson.net http://kobodeluxe.com http://audiality.org | | http://eel.olofson.net http://zeespace.net http://reologica.se | '---------------------------------------------------------------------' _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
