Anyone have any idea what I did wrong? I find the docs for ffmpeg pretty overwhelming, and as a complete ignoramus in the field of audio encoding, I haven't a clue what most of it means. Could be I'm missing something in the conversion, although that wouldn't explain why WMP can play it but TagLib can't open it.

The demand for devices and software products that can play back advanced audio formats is on the rise. Consumers have come to expect immersive sound and content creators want to provide personalized experiences that meet the accessibility requirements and personal preferences of their audiences. MPEG-H Audio is the only mature technology that can deliver on these demands while being transparent and flexible enough to adapt to most integration requirements.

To make it easier for all developers to include MPEG-H Audio playback into their applications, Fraunhofer IIS has now released their decoder software implementation on GitHub. The Fraunhofer FDK MPEG-H Software can be used for a range of operating systems, such as Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. In addition to the decoder source code, the release comprises the MPEG-H Audio User Interface (UI) manager for easy access to the personalization options of MPEG-H Audio and packager software to enable HDMI passthrough of MPEG-H Audio bitstreams to external devices such as AVRs and soundbars. The MPEG-H Audio GitHub repositories also include example programs and wiki pages with helpful technical documentation. This facilitates the development of comprehensive solutions for personalized and immersive sound for software players and client devices.

After pressing a floating action button, I am trying to play audio from the Eleven Labs voice API in flutter using the AudioPlayer library. I am getting a request back but I don't know how to save the audio temporarily and play it. Below is what I have but its not working. How do you create a temporary file that saves as an MPEG file type which can then be played as audio?

They seem to play just fine in whatever software's built into my laptop, but I'd prefer to keep using winamp (and it's cool visualizer! they should bring those back) for everything, but yt2mp3 style sites tend to be downloading as mpeg rather than mp3 now, and they aren't playing properly. I'm assuming it has something to do with codexes or something along those lines, but I've no clue how to even begin fixing the problem. Thanks for your time in advance!

Concerning audio compression (the aspect of the standard most apparent to end-users, and for which it is best known), MP3 uses lossy data-compression to encode data using inexact approximations and the partial discarding of data. This allows a large reduction in file sizes when compared to uncompressed audio. The combination of small size and acceptable fidelity led to a boom in the distribution of music over the Internet in the mid-to-late 1990s, with MP3 serving as an enabling technology at a time when bandwidth and storage were still at a premium. The MP3 format soon became associated with controversies surrounding copyright infringement, music piracy, and the file ripping/sharing services MP3.com and Napster, among others. With the advent of portable media players, a product category also including smartphones, MP3 support remains near-universal.

MP3 compression works by reducing (or approximating) the accuracy of certain components of sound that are considered (by psychoacoustic analysis) to be beyond the hearing capabilities of most humans. This method is commonly referred to as perceptual coding or as psychoacoustic modeling.[13] The remaining audio information is then recorded in a space-efficient manner, using MDCT and FFT algorithms. Compared to CD-quality digital audio, MP3 compression can commonly achieve a 75 to 95% reduction in size. For example, an MP3 encoded at a constant bit rate of 128 kbit/s would result in a file approximately 9% of the size of the original CD audio.[14] In the early 2000s, compact disc players increasingly adopted support for playback of MP3 files on data CDs.

The MP3 lossy audio-data compression algorithm takes advantage of a perceptual limitation of human hearing called auditory masking. In 1894, the American physicist Alfred M. Mayer reported that a tone could be rendered inaudible by another tone of lower frequency.[19] In 1959, Richard Ehmer described a complete set of auditory curves regarding this phenomenon.[20] Between 1967 and 1974, Eberhard Zwicker did work in the areas of tuning and masking of critical frequency-bands,[21][22] which in turn built on the fundamental research in the area from Harvey Fletcher and his collaborators at Bell Labs.[23]

In 1985, Atal and Schroeder presented code-excited linear prediction (CELP), an LPC-based perceptual speech-coding algorithm with auditory masking that achieved a significant data compression ratio for its time.[24] IEEE's refereed Journal on Selected Areas in Communications reported on a wide variety of (mostly perceptual) audio compression algorithms in 1988.[37] The "Voice Coding for Communications" edition published in February 1988 reported on a wide range of established, working audio bit compression technologies,[37] some of them using auditory masking as part of their fundamental design, and several showing real-time hardware implementations.

The genesis of the MP3 technology is fully described in a paper from Professor Hans Musmann,[38] who chaired the ISO MPEG Audio group for several years. In December 1988, MPEG called for an audio coding standard. In June 1989, 14 audio coding algorithms were submitted. Because of certain similarities between these coding proposals, they were clustered into four development groups. The first group was ASPEC, by Fraunhofer Gesellschaft, AT&T, France Telecom, Deutsche and Thomson-Brandt. The second group was MUSICAM, by Matsushita, CCETT, ITT and Philips. The third group was ATAC (ATRAC Coding), by Fujitsu, JVC, NEC and Sony. And the fourth group was SB-ADPCM, by NTT and BTRL.[38]

The immediate predecessors of MP3 were "Optimum Coding in the Frequency Domain" (OCF),[39] and Perceptual Transform Coding (PXFM).[40] These two codecs, along with block-switching contributions from Thomson-Brandt, were merged into a codec called ASPEC, which was submitted to MPEG, and which won the quality competition, but that was mistakenly rejected as too complex to implement. The first practical implementation of an audio perceptual coder (OCF) in hardware (Krasner's hardware was too cumbersome and slow for practical use), was an implementation of a psychoacoustic transform coder based on Motorola 56000 DSP chips.

This codec incorporated into a broadcasting system using COFDM modulation was demonstrated on air and in the field[42] with Radio Canada and CRC Canada during the NAB show (Las Vegas) in 1991. The implementation of the audio part of this broadcasting system was based on a two-chip encoder (one for the subband transform, one for the psychoacoustic model designed by the team of G. Stoll (IRT Germany), later known as psychoacoustic model I) and a real-time decoder using one Motorola 56001 DSP chip running an integer arithmetics software designed by Y.F. Dehery's team (CCETT, France). The simplicity of the corresponding decoder together with the high audio quality of this codec using for the first time a 48 kHz sampling rate, a 20 bits/sample input format (the highest available sampling standard in 1991, compatible with the AES/EBU professional digital input studio standard) were the main reasons to later adopt the characteristics of MUSICAM as the basic features for an advanced digital music compression codec.

During the development of the MUSICAM encoding software, Stoll and Dehery's team made thorough use of a set of high-quality audio assessment material[43] selected by a group of audio professionals from the European Broadcasting Union, and later used as a reference for the assessment of music compression codecs. The subband coding technique was found to be efficient, not only for the perceptual coding of high-quality sound materials but especially for the encoding of critical percussive sound materials (drums, triangle,...), due to the specific temporal masking effect of the MUSICAM sub-band filterbank (this advantage being a specific feature of short transform coding techniques).

In 1991, two available proposals were assessed for an MPEG audio standard: MUSICAM (Masking pattern adapted Universal Subband Integrated Coding And Multiplexing) and ASPEC (Adaptive Spectral Perceptual Entropy Coding). The MUSICAM technique, proposed by Philips (Netherlands), CCETT (France), the Institute for Broadcast Technology (Germany), and Matsushita (Japan),[48] was chosen due to its simplicity and error robustness, as well as for its high level of computational efficiency.[49] The MUSICAM format, based on sub-band coding, became the basis for the MPEG Audio compression format, incorporating, for example, its frame structure, header format, sample rates, etc.

The algorithms for MPEG-1 Audio Layer I, II and III were approved in 1991[15][16] and finalized in 1992[17] as part of MPEG-1, the first standard suite by MPEG, which resulted in the international standard ISO/IEC 11172-3 (a.k.a. MPEG-1 Audio or MPEG-1 Part 3), published in 1993.[7] Files or data streams conforming to this standard must handle sample rates of 48k, 44100, and 32k and continue to be supported by current MP3 players and decoders. Thus the first generation of MP3 defined 14 3 = 42 interpretations of MP3 frame data structures and size layouts.

Karlheinz Brandenburg used a CD recording of Suzanne Vega's song "Tom's Diner" to assess and refine the MP3 compression algorithm.[51] This song was chosen because of its nearly monophonic nature and wide spectral content, making it easier to hear imperfections in the compression format during playbacks. This particular track has an interesting property in that the two channels are almost, but not completely, the same, leading to a case where Binaural Masking Level Depression causes spatial unmasking of noise artifacts unless the encoder properly recognizes the situation and applies corrections similar to those detailed in the MPEG-2 AAC psychoacoustic model. Some more critical audio excerpts (glockenspiel, triangle, accordion, etc.) were taken from the EBU V3/SQAM reference compact disc and have been used by professional sound engineers to assess the subjective quality of the MPEG Audio formats.[citation needed] 2351a5e196
