I think it qualifies as obscure. I've certainly never had any reason to use it. It's a voice codec, so it's likely to have originated in phone systems (and Asterix supports it). It is also a US federal standard (FIPS 137). If someone is using it, I'd rather not break things for them unnecessarily. > Recently, you found some copies of the gsm stack sox used to have > in asterisk and some other audio processing software - thank you. > Before I go looking for copies of lpc, > have you please found it elsewhere too? There are packages called "lpc10" in Mageia, Mandriva (aren't those related?), and PCLinuxOS (whatever that is). None of the normal distros have it. -- Måns Rullgård _______________________________________________ SoX-devel mailing list SoX-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sox-devel
