SFRONT(1) General Commands Manual SFRONT(1) NAME
sfront - MPEG 4 Structured Audio decoder. SYNOPSIS
sfront [options] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the sfront command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original pro- gram does not have a general manual page. Instead, it has documentation in the HTML format; see below. sfront is a program that compiles MPEG 4 Structured Audio (MP4-SA) bitstreams into efficient C programs that generate audio when executed. It supports real-time, low-latency audio input/output and MIDI input from soundcards. You must compile the C file generated after sfront execution with a C compiler, and execute the resulting program to get the audio output. OPTIONS
A summary of the most important options is included below. For a complete description, see the HTML manual. -help Show summary of all of the options. -o c_file Write the C output to the file c_file -bit mp4_file Use the MPEG4 binary file mp4_file as input file. -bitc mp4_file Use the MPEG4 binary file mp4_file as input file.
