[speex-dev] frame size

[Marc Gimpel]

    Hi

Framesize always refers to the decoded data frame size in samples.
Framesize is dependent on the encoding mode
Narrowband (8kHz): framesize = 160 samples = 320 bytes of PCM
Wideband (16kHz): framesize = 320 samples = 640 bytes of PCM
Ultra Wideband (32kHz): framesize = 640 samples = 1280 bytes of PCM
The size of the encoded data depends on the quality setting, so if you 
know for instance that you are using quality 3 on narrowband, that is 
119 bits of encoded data per frame which is rounded to 15 bytes per 
frame (without counting the ogg headers). If you are using VBR then the 
number of bytes used to encode each frame (which says fixed in size) 
will vary.
If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask

    Good luck
