Package: libmad0 (0.15.1b-2.1)

MPEG audio decoder library

MAD is an MPEG audio decoder. It currently only supports the MPEG 1 standard, but fully implements all three audio layers (Layer I, Layer II, and Layer III, the latter often colloquially known as MP3.)

MAD has the following special features:

  - 100% fixed-point (integer) computation
  - completely new implementation based on the ISO/IEC 11172-3 standard
  - distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)
