Recognized Formats (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The following list shows the two formats that the ACM codecs must recognize.

  • PCM 16bits at either 8 or 16 KHz
  • The particular format the codec handles (for example, G.723.1 or G.729)

Both of these formats are defined by a WAVEFORMATEX (Waveform Audio) structure. Therefore, all fields in the two recognized WAVEFORMATEX structures remain constant.

The following code example shows typical definition for the recognized WAVEFORMATEX structures.

WAVEFORMATEX FormatPCM16 =
{
   WAVE_FORMAT_PCM,     // wFormatTag
   1,                   // nChannels
   8000,                // nSamplesPerSec
   16000,               // nAvgBytesPerSec
   2,                   // nBlockAlign
   16,                  // wBitsPerSample
   2                    // cbSize
};    

WAVEFORMATEX FormatG711 =
{
   WAVE_FORMAT_MSG711,  // wFormatTag
   1,                   // nChannels
   8000,                // nSamplesPerSec
   800,                 // nAvgBytesPerSec
   4,                   // nBlockAlign
   0,                   // wBitsPerSample
   2                    // cbSize
};
