1 | INSTALLATION: | ||
2 | ------------- | ||
3 | |||
4 | Simply compile by running 'make' | ||
5 | |||
6 | USAGE: | ||
7 | ------ | ||
8 | |||
9 | Then run the program, it will give you usage instructions. | ||
10 | |||
11 | It's really quite trivial to use. | ||
12 | |||
13 | For example, to decode input.m4a to output.wav: | ||
14 | ./alac -f output.wav input.m4a | ||
15 | |||
16 | Or, as another example, say if you wanted to stream play | ||
17 | http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/samples/A-codecs/lossless/luckynight.m4a | ||
18 | and you're system uses the ALSA sound system: | ||
19 | wget -O - http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/samples/A-codecs/lossless/luckynight.m4a | ./alac - | aplay | ||
20 | |||
21 | By default the output file is in WAV format. To output as raw PCM, provide the | ||
22 | -r option on the command line. | ||
23 | |||
