Hum, first shots with Opus: - For same quality, size of Opus is 20 % smaller than mp3. - You may encode in different modes (voice, audio,..). - Tag is much easier to access/edit than mp3. - Opus: only one sample-rate: 48k (easier for mixing + DSP) - Encoding high quality audio = +- quality of wav. - Up to 256 channels (!) - In same library, decoder + encoder (wow). - Free and open source, without problems of maybe copyright expires.

> Hi freedvs, does it mean with UOS I can create an audio streaming server via HTTP?. If you convert your audio file into opus-file, no problem. But for live audio streaming server... I take a little break and then, it is the next battle. I can already encode the incoming pcm into Opus file. But how to do real internet steaming (voip or web-radio), I must study HTTP-server. It will be difficult for me to test because I do not have easy web access. So, any infos, advices, how-to will be very welcome.

Hello, You are right, my working with MP3 technology was in 1999 so my "standards" are very old :-) Anyway Fraunhofer Institute which holds most known patents about MPEG Layer III does not say "Patents expired" so maybe they can have a later patent over technology trying to enforce it in a future and keep control of the royalties. Releasing a mp3 codec now could be safe in Europe (and 2018 in EEUU) but a hardware piece could be a problem if a later patent appears in the game. In the other hand as all known patents has expired I think no court will be against you, maybe a "cease and desists" at most.

Hello, FLAC is basically a compressed WAV (advanced compression), so high quality sound but low compression ratio, also it is not resilient to dropouts, it was not designed for streaming. If you can not find a suitable codec for your application just use a streaming one like mp3, is not the best for the task, but can do it, FLAC can not. Maybe you may think in Opus http://opus-codec.org/ as it is open, royalty free (mp3 is not free, you must pay royalties for the encoder side) and source code is C89 so it must be compilable (libopus) in almost any platform without a titanic effort.

From the send side you must write to the socket instead to a file as you are sampling from the media input. MP3 is not a stateless compression format, this means that each audio frame may need several previous frames to be able to play the current one. This need is the reason that you sometimes ears a "bleep" sound at broadcast start (non professional). Also this dependency means that you can not compress each source audio chunck in an mp3 and broadcast it, you must compress audio portion in chuncks as part of a single stream. Pseudocode: AcceptRemoteSocket(SocketID); mp3compress:=TMP3Compressor.Create; mp3compress.Open; while SocketID.Active do begin XBytes:=AudioGrabber.Grab(RawAudio,MaxRawAudio,250 millisec); CompressedSize:=mp3Compress(RawAudio,XBytes,Mp3Output,Mp3OutBufferSize); SocketID.Send(Mp3Output,CompressedSize); end; mp3compress.Close; mp3compress.Free; SocketID.Close; This is a very basic guide as this code will need checks to avoid remote contention and audiograbber overflow (usually handled by the audio grabber library). In the other side, mp3 is not a suitable format for voIP, as it have a big latency. This usable for uos_AddFromURL()? I do not know, you need a chuncked send data, something that let you send an amount of data unknown while sending, and usually you will need at least one thread plus the main one if you need to handle more requests at the same time. -- ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
