16 * Introduction
|
|
|
17
|
|
|
18 This Beep Media Player plug-in is a part of the TTA audio compressor
|
|
|
19 which performs lossless compression on multichannel 8,16,24 integer
|
|
|
20 and 32-bit IEEE floating-point data of the wav audio files.
|
|
|
21 Being "lossless" means that no data/quality is lost in the
|
|
|
22 compression - when uncompressed, the data will be identical to
|
|
|
23 the original.
|
|
|
24
|
|
|
25 At now, mostly all of the popular lossless compressors gives a same
|
|
|
26 compression results (difference about 1-3%). TTA is a hardware-
|
|
|
27 oriented format. It means that the TTA format has a reasonable
|
|
|
28 compression level, but WAS NOT developed to show a top results in
|
|
|
29 comparisons. TTA format supports both of ID3v1/v2 tags. Detailed
