Detailed Description

Libavresample (lavr) is a library that handles audio resampling, sample format conversion and mixing.

Interaction with lavr is done through AVAudioResampleContext, which is allocated with avresample_alloc_context(). It is opaque, so all parameters must be set with the AVOptions API.

For example the following code will setup conversion from planar float sample format to interleaved signed 16-bit integer, downsampling from 48kHz to 44.1kHz and downmixing from 5.1 channels to stereo (using the default mixing matrix):

av_opt_set_int(avr, "in_channel_layout", AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT1, 0);
av_opt_set_int(avr, "out_channel_layout", AV_CH_LAYOUT_STEREO, 0);
av_opt_set_int(avr, "in_sample_rate", 48000, 0);
av_opt_set_int(avr, "out_sample_rate", 44100, 0);
av_opt_set_int(avr, "in_sample_fmt", AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP, 0);
av_opt_set_int(avr, "out_sample_fmt", AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16, 0);

Once the context is initialized, it must be opened with avresample_open(). If you need to change the conversion parameters, you must close the context with avresample_close(), change the parameters as described above, then reopen it again.

The conversion itself is done by repeatedly calling avresample_convert(). Note that the samples may get buffered in two places in lavr. The first one is the output FIFO, where the samples end up if the output buffer is not large enough. The data stored in there may be retrieved at any time with avresample_read(). The second place is the resampling delay buffer, applicable only when resampling is done. The samples in it require more input before they can be processed. Their current amount is returned by avresample_get_delay(). At the end of conversion the resampling buffer can be flushed by calling avresample_convert() with NULL input.

The following code demonstrates the conversion loop assuming the parameters from above and caller-defined functions get_input() and handle_output():

int in_linesize, in_samples;
while (get_input(&input, &in_linesize, &in_samples)) {
int out_linesize;
int out_samples = avresample_available(avr) +
in_samples, 44100, 48000, AV_ROUND_UP);
av_samples_alloc(&output, &out_linesize, 2, out_samples,
out_samples = avresample_convert(avr, &output, out_linesize, out_samples,
input, in_linesize, in_samples);
handle_output(output, out_linesize, out_samples);
}

When the conversion is finished and the FIFOs are flushed if required, the conversion context and everything associated with it must be freed with avresample_free().

Function Documentation

AVAudioResampleContext* avresample_alloc_context ( void  )

Allocate AVAudioResampleContext and set options.

Returns
allocated audio resample context, or NULL on failure

Referenced by config_output(), config_props(), and main().

int avresample_available ( AVAudioResampleContext avr)

Return the number of available samples in the output FIFO.

During conversion, if the user does not specify an output buffer or specifies an output buffer that is smaller than what is needed, remaining samples that are not written to the output are stored to an internal FIFO buffer. The samples in the FIFO can be read with avresample_read() or avresample_convert().

Parameters
avraudio resample context
Returns
number of samples available for reading

void avresample_close ( AVAudioResampleContext avr)

Close AVAudioResampleContext.

This closes the context, but it does not change the parameters. The context can be reopened with avresample_open(). It does, however, clear the output FIFO and any remaining leftover samples in the resampling delay buffer. If there was a custom matrix being used, that is also cleared.

const char* avresample_configuration ( void  )

Return the libavresample build-time configuration.

Returns
configure string

Definition at line 632 of file libavresample/utils.c.

int avresample_convert ( AVAudioResampleContext avr,
uint8_t **  output,
int  out_plane_size,
int  out_samples,
uint8_t **  input,
int  in_plane_size,
int  in_samples 
)

Convert input samples and write them to the output FIFO.

The upper bound on the number of output samples is given by avresample_available() + (avresample_get_delay() + number of input samples) * output sample rate / input sample rate.

The output data can be NULL or have fewer allocated samples than required. In this case, any remaining samples not written to the output will be added to an internal FIFO buffer, to be returned at the next call to this function or to avresample_read().

If converting sample rate, there may be data remaining in the internal resampling delay buffer. avresample_get_delay() tells the number of remaining samples. To get this data as output, call avresample_convert() with NULL input.

At the end of the conversion process, there may be data remaining in the internal FIFO buffer. avresample_available() tells the number of remaining samples. To get this data as output, either call avresample_convert() with NULL input or call avresample_read().

int avresample_get_delay ( AVAudioResampleContext avr)

Return the number of samples currently in the resampling delay buffer.

When resampling, there may be a delay between the input and output. Any unconverted samples in each call are stored internally in a delay buffer. This function allows the user to determine the current number of samples in the delay buffer, which can be useful for synchronization.

int avresample_get_matrix ( AVAudioResampleContext avr,
double *  matrix,
int  stride 
)

Get the current channel mixing matrix.

If no custom matrix has been previously set or the AVAudioResampleContext is not open, an error is returned.

int avresample_set_channel_mapping ( AVAudioResampleContext avr,
const int *  channel_map 
)

Set a customized input channel mapping.

This function can only be called when the allocated context is not open. Also, the input channel layout must have already been set.

Calling avresample_close() on the context will clear the channel mapping.

The map for each input channel specifies the channel index in the source to use for that particular channel, or -1 to mute the channel. Source channels can be duplicated by using the same index for multiple input channels.

Examples:

Reordering 5.1 AAC order (C,L,R,Ls,Rs,LFE) to Libav order (L,R,C,LFE,Ls,Rs): { 1, 2, 0, 5, 3, 4 }

Muting the 3rd channel in 4-channel input: { 0, 1, -1, 3 }

Duplicating the left channel of stereo input: { 0, 0 }

Parameters
avraudio resample context
channel_mapcustomized input channel mapping
Returns
0 on success, negative AVERROR code on failure

Definition at line 558 of file libavresample/utils.c.

int avresample_set_compensation ( AVAudioResampleContext avr,
int  sample_delta,
int  compensation_distance 
)

Set compensation for resampling.

This can be called anytime after avresample_open(). If resampling is not automatically enabled because of a sample rate conversion, the "force_resampling" option must have been set to 1 when opening the context in order to use resampling compensation.

Parameters
avraudio resample context
sample_deltacompensation delta, in samples
compensation_distancecompensation distance, in samples
Returns
0 on success, negative AVERROR code on failure

int avresample_set_matrix ( AVAudioResampleContext avr,
const double *  matrix,
int  stride 
)

Set channel mixing matrix.

Allows for setting a custom mixing matrix, overriding the default matrix generated internally during avresample_open(). This function can be called anytime on an allocated context, either before or after calling avresample_open(), as long as the channel layouts have been set. avresample_convert() always uses the current matrix. Calling avresample_close() on the context will clear the current matrix.

Parameters
avraudio resample context
matrixmixing coefficients; matrix[i + stride * o] is the weight of input channel i in output channel o.
