[opus] Question on opus_decoder output sampling rate

[Jean-Marc Valin]

The encoder and decoder can handle, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48 kHz
input/output. If doesn't matter what it gets encoded to/decoded from.
you can initialize a decoder at 8 kHz and it'll still decode 48 kHz
audio fine (you just won't get the high frequencies obviously). For
sampling rates other than 8/12/16/24/48, then you'll have to do
resampling. Have a look at the speexdsp resampler if you don't already
have one.

Cheers,
