CV. oggvorbis

Introduction

The OGG/Vorbis file format, as defined by http://www.vorbis.com/, is a scheme for compressing audio streams by multiple factors with a minimum of quality loss. This extension adds Ogg Vorbis support to PHP's URL Wrappers. When used in read mode, compressed OGG/Vorbis data is expanded to raw PCM audio in one of six PCM encoding formats listed below.

Requirements

This extension requires PHP >= 4.3.0, libogg >= 1.0, and libvorbis >= 1.0.

Runtime Configuration

This extension has no configuration directives defined in php.ini.

Installation

oggvorbis is installed through the usual PECL package installation process.

  • $ pear install oggvorbis

  • Copy the resulting oggvorbis.so to an appropriate location and add extension=oggvorbis.so to your php.ini file or load it dynamically in your PHP script using dl('oggvorbis.so');

Context options

Table 1. OGG/Vorbis tuning options

OptionDefinitionRelevanceDefault
pcm_modePCM byte encoding used. See constants below.Read / WriteOGGVORBIS_PCM_S16_LE
ratePCM Sampling rate. Measured in Hz.Write only44100
bitrate Vorbis Average Bitrate Encoding / Variable Bitrate Encoding. Measured in bps (ABR) or Quality level (VBR: 0.0 to 1.0). 128000 ABR is rough equal to 0.4 VBR. Write only128000
channelsNumber of PCM channels. 1 == Mono, 2 == Stereo.Write only2
serialno Serial Number of stream within file. Must be unique within file. Because of the potential to select a duplicate serial number within a chained file, make efforts to manually assign unique numbers when encoding. Write onlyRandom
comments Associative array of file comments. Will be translated to strtoupper($name) . "=$value". Note: This context option is not available in oggvorbis-0.1 Write onlyarray('ENCODER' => 'PHP/OggVorbis, http://pear.php.net/oggvorbis')

Predefined Constants

The constants below are defined by this extension, and will only be available when the extension has either been compiled into PHP or dynamically loaded at runtime.
