NAME
   Audio::Ofa - Perl interface to libofa, an Acoustig Fingerprinting
   library

VERSION
   This is version 1.01

SYNOPSIS
   This module provides a direct interface to libofa. For not-so-lowlevel
   and more practical assistance with audio fingerprints see
   Audio::Ofa::Util.

       use Audio::Ofa qw(ofa_get_version ofa_create_print);

SUBROUTINES
 ofa_get_version
   Retrieves the version of the installed libofa. Returns a string like
   0.9.3.

 ofa_create_print(data, byteOrder, size, sRate, stereo)
   From the libofa source code comments:

       data: a buffer of 16-bit samples in interleaved format (if stereo), i.e. L,R,L,R, etc.
                    This buffer is destroyed during processing.
                    Ideally, this buffer should contain the entire song to be analyzed, but the process will only
                    need the first 2min + 10sec + any silence prepending the actual audio. Since the precise silence
                    interval will only be known after a couple of processing steps, the caller must make adequate
                    allowance for this. Caveat emptor.
       byteOrder: OFA_LITTLE_ENDIAN, or OFA_BIG_ENDIAN - indicates the byte
                  order of the data being passed in.
       size: the size of the buffer, in number of samples.
       sRate: the sample rate of the signal. This can be an arbitrary rate, as long as it can be expressed
                    as an integer (in samples per second). If this is different from 44100, rate conversion will
                    be performed during preprocessing, which will add significantly to the overhead.
       stereo: 1 if there are left and right channels stored, 0 if the data is mono

       On success, a valid text representation of the fingerprint is returned.

   One should note that "size" is the byte length of "data" divided by 2
   (as in 2 bytes as in 16 bit), regardless of "stereo".

   The XS code will throw an exception if "size" is too large, to prevent a
   buffer overread.
