Codec 2 README
--------------

Codec 2 is an open source (LGPL licensed) speech codec for 1200-3200
bit/s.  For more information please see:

    http://rowetel.com/codec2.html

Also included is a FDMDV modem, see README_fdmdv.txt

Quickstart
----------

1/ Listen to Codec 2:

   $ cd codec2
   $ mkdir build_linux
   $ cmake ../ && make
   $ ./src/c2demo ../raw/hts1a.raw hts1a_c2.raw
   $ ../script/menu.sh ../raw/hts1a.raw hts1a_c2.raw

   NOTE: For playback testing, menu.sh requires either the 'play',
   'aplay' or 'ossplay' programs to be installed (see
   http://sox.sourceforge.net/, http://www.alsa-project.org/, or
   http://www.opensound.com/ respectively).

2/ Compress and Decompress a file:

   $ ./src/c2enc 2400 ../raw/hts1a.raw hts1a_c2.bit
   $ ./src/c2dec 2400 hts1a_c2.bit hts1a_c2.raw 

3/ Same thing with pipes:

   $ ./src/c2enc 1400 ../raw/hts1a.raw - | ./src/c2dec 1400 - - | play -t raw -r 8000 -s -2 -

Programs
--------
 
1/ c2demo encodes a file of speech samples, then decodes them and
saves the result.

2/ c2enc encodes a file of speech samples to a compressed file of
encoded bits.

3/ c2dec decodes a compressed file of bits to a file of speech
samples.

4/ c2sim is a simulation/development version of Codec 2.  It allows
selective use of the various Codec 2 algorithms.  For example
switching phase modelling or LSP quantisation on and off.

Debugging
---------

1/ For dump file support:

  $ cd codec2/build_dir
  $ CFLAGS=-DDUMP make ../
  $ make clean && make

2/ To use gdb:

  $ libtool --mode=execute gdb c2sim
