# Stuff to parse AIFF-C and AIFF files. # # Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the description below is true # both for AIFF-C files and AIFF files. # # An AIFF-C file has the following structure. # # +-----------------+ # | FORM | # +-----------------+ # | | # +----+------------+ # | | AIFC | # | +------------+ # | | | # | | . | # | | . | # | | . | # +----+------------+ # # An AIFF file has the string "AIFF" instead of "AIFC". # # A chunk consists of an identifier (4 bytes) followed by a size (4 bytes, # big endian order), followed by the data. The size field does not include # the size of the 8 byte header. # # The following chunk types are recognized. # # FVER # (AIFF-C only). # MARK # <# of markers> (2 bytes) # list of markers: # (2 bytes, must be > 0) # (4 bytes) # ("pstring") # COMM # <# of channels> (2 bytes) # <# of sound frames> (4 bytes) # (2 bytes) # (10 bytes, IEEE 80-bit extended # floating point) # in AIFF-C files only: # (4 bytes) # ("pstring") # SSND # (4 bytes, not used by this program) # (4 bytes, not used by this program) # # # A pstring consists of 1 byte length, a string of characters, and 0 or 1 # byte pad to make the total length even. # # Usage. # # Reading AIFF files: # f = aifc.open(file, 'r') # where file is either the name of a file or an open file pointer. # The open file pointer must have methods read(), seek(), and close(). # In some types of audio files, if the setpos() method is not used, # the seek() method is not necessary. # # This returns an instance of a class with the following public methods: # getnchannels() -- returns number of audio channels (1 for # mono, 2 for stereo) # getsampwidth() -- returns sample width in bytes # getframerate() -- returns sampling frequency # getnframes() -- returns number of audio frames # getcomptype() -- returns compression type ('NONE' for AIFF files) # getcompname() -- returns human-readable version of # compression type ('not compressed' for AIFF files) # getparams() -- returns a tuple consisting of all of the # above in the above order # getmarkers() -- get the list of marks in the audio file or None # if there are no marks # getmark(id) -- get mark with the specified id (raises an error # if the mark does not exist) # readframes(n) -- returns at most n frames of audio # rewind() -- rewind to the beginning of the audio stream # setpos(pos) -- seek to the specified position # tell() -- return the current position # close() -- close the instance (make it unusable) # The position returned by tell(), the position given to setpos() and # the position of marks are all compatible and have nothing to do with # the actual postion in the file. # The close() method is called automatically when the class instance # is destroyed. # # Writing AIFF files: # f = aifc.open(file, 'w') # where file is either the name of a file or an open file pointer. # The open file pointer must have methods write(), tell(), seek(), and # close(). # # This returns an instance of a class with the following public methods: # aiff() -- create an AIFF file (AIFF-C default) # aifc() -- create an AIFF-C file # setnchannels(n) -- set the number of channels # setsampwidth(n) -- set the sample width # setframerate(n) -- set the frame rate # setnframes(n) -- set the number of frames # setcomptype(type, name) # -- set the compression type and the # human-readable compression type # setparams(nchannels, sampwidth, framerate, nframes, comptype, compname) # -- set all parameters at once # setmark(id, pos, name) # -- add specified mark to the list of marks # tell() -- return current position in output file (useful # in combination with setmark()) # writeframesraw(data) # -- write audio frames without pathing up the # file header # writeframes(data) # -- write audio frames and patch up the file header # close() -- patch up the file header and close the # output file # You should set the parameters before the first writeframesraw or # writeframes. The total number of frames does not need to be set, # but when it is set to the correct value, the header does not have to # be patched up. # It is best to first set all parameters, perhaps possibly the # compression type, and then write audio frames using writeframesraw. # When all frames have been written, either call writeframes('') or # close() to patch up the sizes in the header. # Marks can be added anytime. If there are any marks, ypu must call # close() after all frames have been written. # The close() method is called automatically when the class instance # is destroyed. # # When a file is opened with the extension '.aiff', an AIFF file is # written, otherwise an AIFF-C file is written.
