[speex-dev] narrowband embedded in wideband

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Hi,

Basically, if you have a wideband stream and you want to decode it in
narrowband, all you have to do is use a narrowband decoder (i.e.
initialize the decoder with speex_nb_mode instead of speex_wb_mode). Of
course, if you want to only transmit the narrowband part, you'd need to
find out where the "boundary" is. There is no function that does that
yet, but I might add it in the future.

Now, there's also the question of whether you want to do that in the
first place. While this is more practical in some ways, it also means
that you can't control the narrowband and wideband bit-rates
independently. For example, if you use the 16.8 kbps wideband more the
corresponding narrowband is 15 kbps, which is probably not what you
want.
