Unit al5acodec

This procedure registers all the known audio file type handlers for al_load_sample, al_save_sample, al_load_audio_stream, etc.

Depending on what libraries are available, the full set of recognised extensions is: .wav, .flac, .ogg, .it, .mod, .s3m, .xm.

Limitations:

• Saving is only supported for wav files.

• The wav file loader currently only supports 8/16 bit little endian PCM files. 16 bits are used when saving wav files. Use flac files if more precision is required.

• Module files (.it, .mod, .s3m, .xm) are often composed with streaming in mind, and sometimes cannot be easily rendered into a finite length sample. Therefore they cannot be loaded with al_load_sample and must be streamed with al_load_audio_stream.

• .voc file streaming is unimplemented.

Returns

True on success.

Returns the (compiled) version of the addon, in the same format as al_get_allegro_version.
