Detailed Description

AudioStreamInfo describes an elementary audio stream.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

~AudioStreamInfo ( )

This object can be destroyed only by its implementation.

The caller must use Reference::release.

Member Function Documentation

virtual int32_t bitsPerSample ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the number of bits per sample (sample resolution).

Returns
bits per sample (usually 8, 16, 24 or 32).

Normally bits per sample is not defined for a compressed audio stream and is 0. However it is possible for a compressed audio stream to return a positive value as an indication of audio quality. It can also designate the bits per sample of the LPCM stream once the compressed stream is decoded.

virtual int32_t bytesPerFrame ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the number of bytes occupied by an audio frame (smallest discrete unit).

Returns
bytes per frame.

A frame is the smallest unit in an audio stream. It may contain one or more samples. Depending on the audio stream type the frame may contain fixed or variable number of samples.

For compressed streams the frame size is variable even if there are fixed number of samples in each frame. In this case bytes per frame is 0.

For an LCPM stream the frame size is constant. In this case bytes per frame is a positive value. Normally for interleaved LPCM streams the following is true:

virtual int32_t channelLayout ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the channel layout which defines the mapping between channels and speakers.

Returns
A combination of flags defined in the AudioChannelFlags::Enum.
virtual int32_t channels ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the number of audio channels.

Returns
Number of channels.
virtual AudioStreamInfo* clone ( ) const
pure virtual

Creates a copy of this object.

Returns
A new AudioStreamInfo. The caller is responsible for releasing the new object when it is not needed anymore.

Object Management

Implements StreamInfo.

virtual bool_t copyTo ( AudioStreamInfo destination) const
pure virtual

Copies the state of the current object to a destination object of the same type.

The reference count of the source and the destination is not modified.

Parameters
destination[out] A pointer to the destination object
Returns
TRUE if the object state is copied, FALSE otherwise.
virtual int32_t pcmFlags ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the audio format flags which describe various properties of the audio stream.

Returns
A combination of flags defined in PcmFlags::Enum.
virtual int32_t sampleRate ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the audio sample rate.

Returns
sample rate (Hz)
virtual void setBitsPerSample ( int32_t  bitsPerSample)
pure virtual

Sets the number of bits per sample (sample resolution).

Parameters
bitsPerSample(usually 8, 16, 24 or 32)
virtual void setBytesPerFrame ( int32_t  bytesPerFrame)
pure virtual

Sets the number of bytes occupied by an audio frame (smallest discrete unit).

Parameters
bytesPerFrame[in] Specifies how many bytes are occupied by each audio frame. Normally it is valid (greater than 0) for LPCM streams and invalid (0) for compressed audio streams.
virtual void setChannelLayout ( int32_t  channelLayout)
pure virtual

Sets the channel layout which defines the mapping between channels and speakers.

Parameters
channelLayoutA combination of flags defined in the AudioChannelFlags::Enum.
virtual void setChannels ( int32_t  numChannels)
pure virtual

Sets the number of audio channels.

Parameters
numChannelsnumber of channels.
virtual void setPcmFlags ( int32_t  flags)
pure virtual

Sets the audio format flags which describe various properties of the audio stream.

Parameters
flagsA combination of flags defined in PcmFlags::Enum.
virtual void setSampleRate ( int32_t  sampleRate)
pure virtual

Sets the audio sample rate.

Parameters
sampleRatesample rate (Hz)
