The currently supported platforms are Linux, Solaris, IRIX, OpenBSD, and
|
||||
FreeBSD. If you want support for other platforms, take a look at
|
||||
output_*.c for an idea of what you need to do.
|
||||
|
||||
This software is completely useless to 99.99 percent of users
|
||||
out there. It is mostly of use to those interested in audio
|
||||
coding research and evaluating codecs. It could theoretically
|
||||
be used as a portion of a DVD playback system for unix systems.
|
||||
|
||||
HOW TO COMPILE
|
||||
|
||||
Building ac3dec should be easy. Here's how:
|
||||
|
||||
./configure && make all
|
||||
|
||||
USAGE
|
||||
|
||||
To find AC-3 streams on the internet, use www.google.com and
|
||||
search for "vob trailer". A vob is a "Video Object" which is
|
||||
just an MPEG-2 stream. The site www.hollywood.com has a
|
||||
few good MPEG-2s with AC-3 audio. The program tools/extract_ac3
|
||||
will take an MPEG-2 stream and spit out AC-3 audio to stdout if
|
||||
it exists. You can easily pipe this data to the ac3 player like
|
||||
this:
|
||||
|
||||
./tools/extract_ac3 foo.vob | ./ac3dec/
|
||||
|
||||
You can also get AC-3 streams on a DVD. Check out
|
||||
http://www.linuxvideo.org for details.
|
||||
|
||||
DEBUG OUTPUT
|
||||
|
||||
You can get a whole pile of debug info by setting the environment
|
||||
variable AC3_DEBUG=1. Be sure to pipe stderr to a file or you probably
|
||||
won't get realtime playback. You can pipe stderr to a file like so:
|
||||
|
||||
./ac3dec foo.ac3 2> debug.out
