-FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. The FLAC project consists of:
+FLAC is an Open Source lossless audio codec.
- - the stream format
- - libFLAC, a library which implements a reference encoder, stream decoder,
- and file decoder
- - flac, which is a command-line wrapper around libFLAC to encode and
- decode .flac files
- - input plugins for various music players (Winamp, XMMS, and more in the
- works)
-
-What FLAC is:
- - FLAC is patent free
- - FLAC is lossless
- - FLAC is designed to compress audio data
- - The compression capabilities of FLAC are extendable
- - The currently implemented compression methods in the reference encoder
- yield streams smaller than shorten
- - FLAC is asymmetric in favor of decode speed
- - FLAC is suitable for archiving
- - FLAC is suitable for streaming
- - FLAC supports fast sample-accurate seeking
- - FLAC has an extendable metadata system
+FLAC is comprised of
+* libFLAC, a library which implements reference encoders and
+ decoders, and a metadata interface
+* libFLAC++, a C++ object wrapper library around libFLAC
+* libOggFLAC and libOggFLAC++, which provide encoders and
+ decoders for FLAC streams in an Ogg container
+* flac, a command-line program for encoding and decoding files
+* metaflac, a command-line program for viewing and editing FLAC
+ metadata
+* user and API documentation
