A powerful audio playback engine for Mac OS X and iOS

About SFBAudioEngine

SFBAudioEngine is a set of C++ classes enabling Mac OS X and iOS applications to easily play audio. SFBAudioEngine supports the following formats:

• WAVE
• AIFF
• Apple Lossless
• AAC
• FLAC
• MP3
• WavPack
• Ogg Vorbis
• Ogg Speex
• Ogg Opus
• Musepack (Mac OS X only)
• Monkey's Audio (Mac OS X only)
• True Audio (Mac OS X only)
• All other formats supported natively by Core Audio

In addition to playback, SFBAudioEngine supports reading and writing of metadata for most supported formats.

SFBAudioEngine uses C++11 language and standard library features. For this reason clang must be used to compile SFBAudioEngine and its dependencies, and clang's libc++ must be used as the C++ standard library. Any application using SFBAudioEngine must also be compiled with clang and libc++.

Building SFBAudioEngine

1. Get the source code: git clone https://github.com/sbooth/SFBAudioEngine.git
2. Download the dependencies and unpack in the project's root: http://files.sbooth.org/SFBAudioEngine-dependencies.tar.bz2
3. Open the project and build!

Using SFBAudioEngine

Playing an audio file is as simple as:

NSURL *u = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"example.flac" isDirectory:NO];
SFB::Audio::Player player;
player.PlayURL((__bridge CFURLRef)u);
