Struct WavSpec

pub struct WavSpec {
    pub channels: u16,
    pub sample_rate: u32,
    pub bits_per_sample: u16,
    pub sample_format: SampleFormat,
}

Specifies properties of the audio data.

Fields

channels: u16

The number of channels.

sample_rate: u32

The number of samples per second.

A common value is 44100, this is 44.1 kHz which is used for CD audio.

bits_per_sample: u16

The number of bits per sample.

A common value is 16 bits per sample, which is used for CD audio.

sample_format: SampleFormat

Whether the wav’s samples are float or integer values.

Implementations

impl WavSpec

pub fn into_header_for_infinite_file(self) -> Vec<u8>

Get “stand-alone” wav header representing infinite or unknown size wav file. Use this if you need to write audio data to non-seekable sinks (like stdout).

Actual samples are supposed to be written using low-level Sample::write call.

Such wav files are produced e.g. by FFmpeg and have 0xFFFFFFFF instead of chunk sizes.

Note that such files may be non-standard. Consider using WavWriter for better API.

Example:

extern crate hound;
use std::io::Write;
 
let spec = hound::WavSpec {
    bits_per_sample: 16,
    channels: 1,
    sample_format: hound::SampleFormat::Int,
    sample_rate: 16000,
};
 
let v = spec.into_header_for_infinite_file();
 
let so = std::io::stdout();
let mut so = so.lock();
so.write_all(&v[..]).unwrap();
 
loop {
   for i in 0..126 {
      let x : i16 = (i * 256) as i16;
      hound::Sample::write(x, &mut so, 16).unwrap();
   }
}

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for WavSpec

fn clone(&self) -> WavSpec

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for WavSpec

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for WavSpec

fn eq(&self, other: &WavSpec) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
