The compression ratios of TTA depend on the type of +music file being compressed, but the compression size will generally range between 30% - 70% of +the original. TTA format supports both of ID3v1/v2 and APEv2 tags. -True Audio compresses up to 30% of the original, broadly similar to FLAC and APE. -It features a real-time encoding and decoding algorithm and hardware compression support. -As with most other lossless codecs, plugins are available for most media players. - -TTA performs lossless compression on multichannel 8, 16 and 24 bit data of uncompressed wav input files. -The term "lossless" refers to the fact that such compression results in no data or quality loss; -when decompressed, the audio file data are bit-identical to those of their originals. -Compression ratios achieved by the TTA codec vary, depending on music type, but range from 30% to 70% of the original. -The TTA lossless compressed audio format supports both ID3v1/ID3v2 information tags and APEv2. - -The TTA lossless audio codec allows for the storage of up to 20 audio CDs worth of music on a single DVD-R, -retaining the original CD quality audio, plus detailed information in the ID3 tag format. - -All TTA source code and binaries are freely available and distributed under GPL Open Source licenses. +This package can coexist with "tta", also available in SlackBuilds. |
