Speex 1.2 Beta 3  beta

Publisher's Description:

Speex is specially designed for compressing voice at low bit-rates. It is an audio codec designed especially for voice signals and providing good narrowband and wideband quality. It aims to be complementary to the Ogg Vorbis codec.

Latest Changes:

  • All non-codec components (preprocessor, echo cancellation, jitter buffer) have been moved to a new libspeexdsp library
  • New jitter buffer algorithm and resampler improvements/fixes
  • First release where libspeex can be built without any floating point support

I'd love to be able to utilize something like this, but I can't imagine a way to get my portable Rio Carbon to support it.

This is a very fine codec. It has become my codec of choice for encoding audiobooks and lectures from CD and cassettes.

If you're an audiobook listener, you really should use it. Frontends are available for encoding/decoding, and plug-ins are available for playback in Foobar2000, QCD, and Winamp.

I agree. This is the best codec for low bitrate voice encoding.
