               Audio Codec Development Sample Application
               ==========================================

NOTE: If you use this sample application for your own purposes, follow
      the licensing agreement specified in Software_Use_Agreement.rtf
      in the home directory of the installed RSL10 Software Development
      Kit (SDK).

This sample code in conjunction with the AudioCodecsDSP sample, provides an
introduction to the use of the LPDSP32 processor for the specific purposes of
evaluating audio codec behaviour.

Full details of the use of the LPDSP32 and an explanation of the construction
of these projects can be found in the associated documentation file:

    - RSL10_LPDSP32_Support.pdf 

In summary, these projects provide sample implementations of:

    1.  A pass through application which puts in place the structures and
        control to send data through the LPDSP32 unchanged
    2.  A reference implementation of the G722 audio code which supports
        encode and decode in modes 1, 2 & 3.
    3.  A sample implementation of the CELT audio codec for wide band audio.
    
    
One important detail to note regarding this project, it provides a standardised
i/o facility to feed audio samples into and out of the codecs under test.

This can use the driver contained in src/io/gdb to operate the program under
controlled and automated test conditions. Corresponding Python scripts are
available in the AudioIO project which control the GDB debugger to perform
standalone regression tests.

More details on the use of the ioGDB driver is provided in the readme file in
that folder.
