NAME
       libswresample - audio resampling	library

DESCRIPTION
       The libswresample library performs highly optimized audio resampling,
       rematrixing and sample format conversion	operations.

       Specifically, this library performs the following conversions:

          Resampling: is the process of changing the audio rate, for example
	   from	a high sample rate of 44100Hz to 8000Hz. Audio conversion from
	   high	to low sample rate is a	lossy process. Several resampling
	   options and algorithms are available.

          Format conversion: is the process of	converting the type of
	   samples, for	example	from 16-bit signed samples to unsigned 8-bit
	   or float samples. It	also handles packing conversion, when passing
	   from	packed layout (all samples belonging to	distinct channels
	   interleaved in the same buffer), to planar layout (all samples
	   belonging to	the same channel stored	in a dedicated buffer or
	   "plane").

          Rematrixing:	is the process of changing the channel layout, for
	   example from	stereo to mono.	When the input channels	cannot be
	   mapped to the output	streams, the process is	lossy, since it
	   involves different gain factors and mixing.

       Various other audio conversions (e.g. stretching	and padding) are
       enabled through dedicated options.
