<concept id="GUID-8D8202BB-1070-5EE2-85C0-E37AABA67340" xml:lang="en"><title>MmfExCodec:

Multimedia Framework codec plug-in example</title><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

<section><title>Description</title> <p> <filepath>MmfExCodec</filepath> demonstrates

how to implement a codec plug-in for the Multimedia Framework. A codec converts

media data in one encoding into another encoding. The example converts audio

data encoded with PCM8 into PCM16. </p> <p>The program is an ECom plug-in

that implements the codec interface <codeph>CMMFCodec</codeph> by the class <codeph>CMMFExPcm8Pcm16Codec</codeph>.

When a client or media format requires a PCM8 to PCM16 codec, the Multimedia

Framework will instantiate a <codeph>CMMFExPcm8Pcm16Codec</codeph> object,

and call its <codeph>ProcessL()</codeph> member function to convert data supplied

a source buffer. As converting PCM8 into PCM16 only requires expanding each

byte in the source buffer into two bytes in the destination buffer, <codeph>CMMFExPcm8Pcm16Codec::ProcessL()</codeph> is

not very complex. </p> </section>
