Description

audioresample resamples raw audio buffers to different sample rates using a configurable windowing function to enhance quality.

By default, the resampler uses a reduced sinc table, with cubic interpolation filling in the gaps. This ensures that the table does not become too big. However, the interpolation increases the CPU usage considerably. As an alternative, a full sinc table can be used. Doing so can drastically reduce CPU usage (4x faster with 44.1 -> 48 kHz conversions for example), at the cost of increased memory consumption, plus the sinc table takes longer to initialize when the element is created. A third mode exists, which uses the full table unless said table would become too large, in which case the interpolated one is used instead.

Example launch line

1
gst-launch-1.0 -v uridecodebin uri=file:///path/to/audio.ogg ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! audio/x-raw, rate=8000 ! autoaudiosink

Decode an audio file and downsample it to 8Khz and play sound. To create the Ogg/Vorbis file refer to the documentation of vorbisenc. This assumes there is an audio sink that will accept/handle 8kHz audio.
