What it does

Libnyquist decodes various audio file formats such as mp3, wav, ogg, opus, and flac into a standardized format for further processing or analysis.

When to use it

•Building a music streaming service that needs to support multiple audio formats
•Developing an audio processing application that requires handling different file formats
•Creating a podcast or audiobook platform that needs to decode and play back various audio files

Ready-to-paste prompt

Use the following command to decode an audio file: `ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -f s16le -ar 44.1k -ac 2 -acodec pcm_s16le output.raw` and then process the output.raw file using libnyquist

Heads up: Ensure you have the necessary build tools and dependencies installed, such as CMake and a C++11-compatible compiler, before attempting to build libnyquist.
