similar to: Rice coding parameter

Hi, I asked a few questions about the flac format a couple of weeks ago. One more (if you don't mind) about the Rice coding. The Rice parameter "k" can't be zero (unless I'm mistaken), yet the FLAC spec says the Rice parameter can range from 0 to 15. I guessed, and tried adding one before using the parameter (i.e. assuming the range was really 1 to 16), and that didn't

Hi, I'm trying to write a FLAC decoder for my Java audio app. Can I ask a couple of questions to this list about the format? I think there are a couple of things not-quite-mentioned in the official spec. RICE CODING: Which order are Rice-coded numbers stored in? (a) [sign-bit][low-order bits]["k" zeroes][1] (b) [sign-bit]["k" zeroes][1][low-order bits] (c)

I've been looking over Benjamin Schwartz's Skeleton A-mod proposal. I've been pretty busy with other projects over the past few months, so haven't had a chance to look at Ogg indexing until now... In general, I think Benjamin's ideas are sound, they're improvements, and I'm open to being convinced to take them in the next index version. We may as well get the index

Hi all, I am interested in building a stand alone Rice Encoder/Decoder, using FLAC source code as a starting point. I've read the theory behind it, and I am very interested in info theory. However, I am struggling with how exactly I would implement the theory in code. I'm a newbie to computer science (only 1 year experience). I have read the format and documentation links on the FLAC

​Can you guys clarify that by Rice you don't mean unary coding, but exponential golomb coding? that issue has confused me before, and probably others.​ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hello all! (cc-ing the flac-dev list) I would like to give an update as to the recent CELLAR work on the FLAC specification. • Work has been done to make internal and external links more accurate and reliable. • 'Rice Coding' has been clarified as 'Exponential Golomb Coding.' • Clarifications have been made for binary representation. • Typos and other small changes have been

I just wanted to point out that it's "stats", not "STATs". "Stats" is not an acronym! It's an abbreviation; it's short for "statistics".

As far as I know, that is not limited to 32-bit in the format itself, only in the implementation. However, there are two residual coding methods now: rice and rice2. rice2 was added

running it as myself ("dan") - the same as the owner of the logfiles and of the containing folder. i did try running it as root at first, but as you probably know, you get a warning message if you try to do that. dan On Tue, 7 Dec 2004 13:03:08 -0800, Daniel <lpmusix@gmail.com> wrote: > what user are you running icecast as? > > > > > On Tue, 7 Dec 2004

Going in details through the FLAC format specification, I realize that there are 2 rice coding methods now supported for residual encoding. I thought I remembered in the 1.1.3 times that there was only 1 method (with 4-bit Rice parameter) [or was I drunk ? ;-)]. Going through the change log, I didn't find any reference to such an addition to the format. Now, the decoder implementation I'm

Hello, I am the author of the Bonk audio compression program... i've just been looking at your comparrison table, and i noticed bonk gets marginally better compression than Flac on some files (actually i was rather surprised to see bonk on the list at all, it's not exactly high profile :-) ). Bonk in lossless mode is a pretty naive implementation of a predictive coder, so the main

No, FFMPEG uses its own FLAC encoder/decoder, based on Flake source code, that based on FLAC reference encoder/decoder source code. Yes, I agree that "optimal"? values for reference encoder/decoder may differ "optimal"? values for FFMPEG's encoder/decoder. But we're talking about the "highest reasonable" values, not "optimal". >>>>>
