shorten reduces the size of waveform files (such as audio) using Huffman
|
|
coding of prediction residuals and optional additional quantisation. In
|
|
lossless mode the amount of compression obtained depends on the nature
|
|
of the waveform. Those composing of low frequencies and low amplitudes
|
|
give the best compression, which may be 2:1 or better. Lossy compression
|
|
operates by specifying a minimum acceptable segmental signal to noise
|
|
ratio or a maximum bit rate. Lossy compression operates by zeroing the
|
|
lower order bits of the waveform, so retaining waveform shape.
