Methods

	Name	Description
	DecodeFromFile(String)	Decode a signal from the specified file.
	DecodeFromFile(String, FrameInfo)	Decode a signal from the specified file.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Extension Methods

	Name	Description
	HasMethod	Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
	IsEqual	Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices. (Defined by Matrix.)
	To(Type)	Overloaded. Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
	ToT	Overloaded. Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime. (Defined by ExtensionMethods.)

Remarks

The class represent a help class, which simplifies decoding of audio files finding appropriate image decoder automatically (using list of registered audio decoders). Instead of using required audio decoder directly, users may use this class, which will find required decoder by file's extension.

By default the class will query all referenced assemblies for types that are marked with the FormatDecoderAttribute. If the user would like to implement a new decoder, all that is necessary is to mark a new class with the FormatDecoderAttribute and make it implement the IAudioDecoder interface.

Examples

Copy

string filename = Path.Combine(basePath, "lena.pgm");

// One way to decode the image explicitly is to use
Bitmap image1 = ImageDecoder.DecodeFromFile(filename);

// However, you could also obtain the same effect using
Bitmap image2 = Accord.Imaging.Image.FromFile(filename);
