- NAME
- gsm_option - customizing the GSM 06.10 implementation
-
- SYNOPSIS
- #include "gsm.h"
-
- int gsm_option(handle, option, valueP);
- gsm handle;
- int option;
- int * valueP;
-
- DESCRIPTION
- The gsm library is an implementation of the final draft GSM
- 06.10 standard for full-rate speech transcoding, a lossy
- speech compression algorithm.
-
- The gsm_option() function can be used to set and query vari-
- ous options or flags that are not needed for regular GSM
- 06.10 encoding or decoding, but might be of interest in spe-
- cial cases.
-
- The second argument to gsm_option specifies what parameter
- should be changed or queried. The third argument is either
- a null pointer, in which case the current value of that
- parameter is returned; or it is a pointer to an integer con-
- taining the value you want to set, in which case the previ-
- ous value will be returned.
-
- The following options are currently defined:
-
- GSM_OPT_VERBOSE Verbosity level.
- This option is only supported if the library was com-
- piled with debugging turned on, and may be used by
- developers of compression algorithms to aid debugging.
- The verbosity level can be changed at any time during
- encoding or decoding.
-
- GSM_OPT_FAST Faster compression algorithm.
- This implementation offers a not strictly standard-
- compliant, but faster compression algorithm that is
- compatible with the regular method and does not notica-
- bly degrade audio quality.
- The value passed to
- gsm_option(handle, GSM_OPT_FAST, & value)
- functions as a boolean flag; if it is zero, the regular
- algorithm will be used, if not, the faster version will
- be used.
- The availability of this option depends on the hardware
- used; if it is not available, gsm_option will return -1
- on an attempt to set or query it.
- This option can be set any time during encoding or
- decoding.

-
- GSM_OPT_LTP_CUT Enable, disable, or query the LTP cut-off
- optimization.
- During encoding, the search for the long-term correla-
- tion lag forms the bottleneck of the algorithm. The
- ltp-cut option enables an approximation that disregards
- most of the samples for purposes of finding that corre-
- lation, and hence speeds up the encoding at a noticable
- loss in quality.
- The value passed to
- gsm_option(handle, GSM_OPT_LTP_CUT, & value)
- turns the optimization on if nonzero, and off if zero.
- This option can be set any time during encoding or
- decoding; it will only affect the encoding pass, not
- the decoding.
-
- RETURN VALUE
- gsm_option() returns -1 if an option is not supported, the
- previous value of the option otherwise.
