- Description
- SPHERE (SPeech HEader Resources) is a file format defined by NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) and is used with speech audio. SoX can read these files when they contain μ-law and PCM data. It will ignore any header information that says the data is compressed using shorten compression and will treat the data as either μ-law or PCM. This will allow SoX and the command line shorten program to be run together using pipes to encompasses the data and then pass the result to SoX for processing.
- A DTS Encoded Audio File, with the extension .dts, is a digital audio format developed by Digital Theater Systems (now known as DTS, Inc.). It is widely used for storing and delivering multi-channel audio content, such as that found in DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and other digital media platforms. DTS audio files are highly appreciated for their ability to provide high-quality surround sound, enhancing the listening experience for movies, music, and games.
