-<H4><A NAME="plugins">2.3.2.3 Audio plugins</A></H4>
+<H4><A NAME="af">2.3.2.3 Audio filters</A></H4>
+<P>The old audio plugins have been superseded by a new audio filter layer. Audio
+filters are used for changing the properties of the audio data before the
+sound reaches the sound card. The activation and deactivation of the filters
+is normally automated but can be overridden. The filters are activated when
+the properties of the audio data differ from those required by the sound card
+and deactivated if unnecessary. The <CODE>-af filter1,filter2,...</CODE>
+switch is used to override the automatic activation of filters or to insert
+filters that are not automatically inserted. The filters will be executed as
+they appear in the comma separated list.</P>
+<P>Example:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af resample,pan movie.avi </CODE></P>
+<P>would run the sound through the resampling filter followed by the pan filter.
+Observe that the list must not contain any spaces, else it will fail.</P>
+<P>The filters often have switches that change their behavior. These switches
+are explained in detail in the sections below. A filter will execute using
+default settings if its switches are omitted. Here is an example of how to use
+filters in combination with filter specific switches:</P>
+<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af resample=11025,pan=1:0.5:0.5 -channels 1
+-srate 11025 media.avi</CODE></P>
+<P>would set the output frequency of the resample filter to 11025Hz and downmix
+the audio to 1 channel using the pan filter.</P>
+<P>Most filters respond to the <CODE>-v</CODE> switch, which makes the filters
+print out status messages.</P>
+<P>The overall execution of the filter layer is controlled using the
+<CODE>-af-adv</CODE> switch. This switch has two suboptions:</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>force</CODE><DT>
+<DD>is an integer between 0 and 3 that controls how the filters are inserted
+and what speed/accuracy optimizations they use:
+<DL>
+<DT>0</DT>
+<DD>Use automatic insertion of filters and optimize according to CPU
+speed.</DD>
+<DT>1</DT>
+<DD>Use automatic insertion of filters and optimize for the highest speed.
+If this option is set the processing of the audio data will be done
+using fix point arithmetics. Warning: Some features in the audio filters
+will silently fail, and the sound quality may drop.</DD>
+<DT>2</DT>
+<DD>Use automatic insertion of filters and optimize for quality. If this
+option is set the processing of the audio data will be done using
+floating point instructions and is therefore quite CPU intensive, but
+gives a lot higher sound quality than fix point processing.</DD>
+<DT>3</DT>
+<DD>Use no automatic insertion of filters and no optimization. Warning: It
+may be possible to crash MPlayer using this setting.</DD>
+</DL>
+</DD>
+<DT><CODE>list</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is an alias for the -af switch.</DD>
+</DL>
+<H5><A NAME="af_resample">2.3.2.3.1 Up/Down-sampling</A></H5>
+<P>MPlayer fully supports sound up/down-sampling. This filter can be used if you
+have a fixed frequency sound card or if you are stuck with an old sound card
+that is only capable of max 44.1kHz. This filter is automatically enabled if
+it is necessary, but it can also be explicitly enabled on the command line. It
+has three switches:</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>srate</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is an integer used for setting the output sample
+frequency in Hz. The valid range for this parameter is 8kHz to 192kHz. If
+the input and output sample frequency are the same or if this parameter is
+omitted the filter is automatically unloaded. A high sample frequency
+normally improves the audio quality, especially when used in combination
+with other filters.</DD>
+<DT><CODE>sloppy</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is an optional binary parameter that allows the output frequency to differ
+slightly from the frequency given by <CODE>srate</CODE>. This switch can be
+used if the startup of the playback is extremely slow.</DD>
+<DT><CODE>fast</CODE><DT>
+<DD>is an optional binary parameter that enables linear interpolation as
+resampling method. Linear interpolation is extremely fast, but suffers from
+poor sound quality especially when used for up-sampling.</DD>
+</DL>
+<P>Example:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af resample=44100:0:1</CODE></P>
+<P>would set the output frequency of the resample filter to 44100Hz using exact
+output frequency scaling and linear interpolation.</P>
+<H5><A NAME="af_channels">2.3.2.3.2 Changing the number of channels</A></H5>
+<P>The <CODE>channels</CODE> filter can be used for adding and removing
+channels, it can also be used for routing or copying channels. It is
+automatically enabled when the output from the audio filter layer differs from
+the input layer or when it is requested by another filter. This filter unloads
+itself if not needed. The number of switches is dynamic:</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>nch</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is an integer between 1 and 6 that is used for setting the number of
+output channels. This switch is required, leaving it empty results in a
+runtime error.</DD>
+<DT><CODE>nr</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is an integer between 1 and 6 that is used for specifying the number of
+routes. This parameter is optional. If it is omitted the default routing is
+used.</DD>
+<DT><CODE>from1:to1:from2:to2:from3:to3...</CODE></DT>
+<DD>are pairs of numbers between 0 and 5 that define where each channel should
+be routed.</DD>
+</DL>
+<P>If only <CODE>nch</CODE> is given the default routing is used, it works as
+follows: If the number of output channels is bigger than the number of input
+channels empty channels are inserted (except mixing from mono to stereo, then
+the mono channel is repeated in both of the output channels). If the number of
+output channels is smaller than the number of input channels the exceeding
+channels are truncated.</P>
+<P>Example 1:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af channels=4:4:0:1:1:0:2:2:3:3 media.avi </CODE></P>
+<P>would change the number of channels to 4 and set up 4 routes that swap
+channel 0 and channel 1 and leave channel 2 and 3 intact. Observe that if
+media containing two channels was played back, channels 2 and 3 would contain
+silence but 0 and 1 would still be swapped.</P>
+<P>Example 2:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af channels=6:4:0:0:0:1:0:2:0:3 media.avi </CODE></P>
+<P>would change the number of channels to 6 and set up 4 routes that copy
+channel 0 to channels 0 to 3. Channel 4 and 5 will contain silence.</P>
+<H5><A NAME="af_format">2.3.2.3.3 Sample format converter</A></H5>
+<P>This filter is a sample format converter. It is automatically enabled when
+needed by the sound card or another filter.</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>bps</CODE></DT>
+<DD>can be 1, 2 or 4 and denotes the number of bytes per sample. This switch
+is required, leaving it empty results in a runtime error.</DD>
+<DT><CODE>f</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is a text string describing the sample format. The string is a
+concatenated mix of: <CODE>alaw</CODE>, <CODE>mulaw</CODE> or
+<CODE>imaadpcm</CODE>, <CODE>float</CODE> or <CODE>int</CODE>,
+<CODE>unsigned</CODE> or <CODE>signed</CODE>, <CODE>le</CODE> or
+<CODE>be</CODE> (little or big endian). This switch is required, leaving it
+empty results in a runtime error.</DD>
+</DL>
+<P>Example:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer media.avi -af format=4:float</CODE></P>
+<P>would set the output output format to 4 bytes per sample floating point
+data.</P>
+<H5><A NAME="af_delay">2.3.2.3.4 Delay</A></H5>
+<P>This filter delays the sound to the loudspeakers in order to make the sound
+in the different channels arrive at the same time to the listening position.
+It is only useful if you have more than 2 loudspeakers. This filter has a
+variable number of parameters:</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>d1:d2:d3...</CODE></DT>
+<DD>are floating point numbers representing the delays in ms that should be
+imposed on the different channels. The minimum delay is 0ms and the maximum
+is 1000ms.</DD>
+</DL>
+<P>To calculate the required delay for the different channels do as follows:</P>
+<OL>
+<LI>Measure the distance to the loudspeakers in meters in relation to your
+listening position, giving you the distances s1 to s5 (for a 5.1 system).
+There is no point in compensating for the sub-woofer (you will not hear the
+difference anyway).</LI>
+<LI>Subtract the distances s1 to s5 from the maximum distance i.e.<BR>
+s[i] = max(s) - s[i]; i = 1...5</LI>
+<LI>Calculated the required delays in ms as<BR>
+d[i] = 1000*s[i]/342; i = 1...5 </LI>
+</OL>
+<P>Example:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af delay=10.5:10.5:0:0:7:0 media.avi</CODE></P>
+<P>would delay front left and right by 10.5ms, the two rear channels and the sub
+by 0ms and the center channel by 7ms.</P>
+<H5><A NAME="af_volume">2.3.2.3.5 Software volume control</A></H5>
+<P>This filter is a software volume control. Use this filter with caution since
+it can reduce the signal to noise ratio of the sound. In most cases it is best
+to set the level for the PCM sound to max, leave this filter out and control
+the output level to your speakers with the master volume control of the mixer.
+If there is an external amplifier connected to the computer (this is almost
+always the case), the noise level can be minimized by adjusting the master
+level and the volume knob on the amplifier until the hissing noise in the
+background is gone. This filter has two switches:</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>v</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is a floating point number between -200 and +60 which represents the
+volume level in dB. The default level is -10dB.</DD>
+<DT><CODE>c</CODE></DT>
+<DD>is a binary control that turns soft clipping on and off. Soft-clipping can
+make the sound more smooth if very high volume levels are used. Enable this
+switch if the dynamic range of the loudspeakers is very low. Be aware that
+this feature creates distortion and should be considered a last resort.</DD>
+</DL>
+<P>Example:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af volume=10.1:0 media.avi</CODE></P>
+<P>would amplify the sound by 10.1dB and hard-clip if the sound level is too
+high.</P>
+<P>This filter has a second feature: It measures the overall maximum sound level
+and prints out that level when MPlayer exits. This volume estimate can be used
+for setting the sound level in MEncoder such that the maximum dynamic range is
+utilized.</P>
+<H5><A NAME="af_equalizer">2.3.2.3.6 Equalizer</A></H5>
+<P> This filter is a 10 octave band graphic equalizer, implemented using 10 IIR
+band pass filters. This means that it works regardless of what type of audio
+is being played back. The center frequencies for the 10 bands are:</P>
+<TABLE BORDER="0" WIDTH="100%">
+<TR><TD>Band No.</TD><TD>Center frequency</TD></TR>
+<TR><TD>0</TD><TD>31.25 Hz</TD></TR>

+</TABLE>
+<P>If the sample rate of the sound being played back is lower than the center
+frequency for a frequency band, then that band will be disabled. A known bug
+with this filter is that the characteristics for the uppermost band are not
+completely symmetric if the sample rate is close to the center frequency of
+that band. This problem can be worked around by up-sampling the sound using
+the resample filter before it reaches this filter. </P>
+<P> This filter has 10 parameters:</P>
+<DL>
+<DT><CODE>g1:g2:g3...g10</CODE></DT>
+<DD>are floating point numbers between -12 to +12dB representing the gain in

+<P>Example:<BR>
+&nbsp;&nbsp;<CODE>mplayer -af equalizer=11:11:10:5:0:-12:0:5:12:12 media.avi</CODE></P>
+<P>would amplify the sound in the upper and lower frequency region while
+canceling it almost completely around 1kHz.</P>
+<H5><A NAME="af_panning">2.3.2.3.7 Panning filter </A></H5>
+<P>This filter can be used for mixing the channels arbitrarily. It is basically
+a combination of the volume control and the channels filter. There are two
