2 ============================
4 Version 1.2, (c) 2004 Alexander Djourik. All rights reserved.
8 This library provides to decode a multichannel 8,16 and 24
9 bits TTA audio files. TTA is a lossless audio format. Being
10 "lossless" means that no data/quality is lost in the compression
11 - when uncompressed, the data will be identical to the original.
12 The compression ratios of TTA depend on the type of music file
13 being compressed, but the compression size will generally range
14 between 30% - 70% of the original.
16 TTA format supports both of ID3v1/v2 tags. Detailed format
17 description is available at http://www.true-audio.com.
19 The decoder process has a minimal system requirements and does
20 not required to create a big additional memory pools. As the
21 TTA algorithms has a same system requirements both for decoding
22 and for encoding processes - the TTA recorder can be easily
