Apple Lossless Format "Magic Cookie" Description
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
|
||||
Many encoded formats for audio require additional, codec specific configuration information in order to operate successfully.
|
||||
This codec specific information is often called a 'magic cookie'. The Apple Lossless codec's 'magic cookie' contains the
|
||||
ALACSpecificConfig and optional ALACChannelLayoutInfo (both described below).
|
||||
|
||||
The 'magic cookie' must accompany the bitstream when stored in any file container (M4A/MP4, CAF) so that it may be provided to the
|
||||
decoder when decoding the bitstream. From the caller's perspective, the 'magic cookie' is opaque and should be stored in the file
|
||||
and presented to the decoder exactly as it is vended from the encoder (and consequently stored in the file).
|
||||
|
||||
The ALAC 'magic cookie' as stored in a file has all fields described in big-endian order (regardless of file format).
|
||||
|
||||
The layout of the 'magic cookie' is as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- ALAC Specific Info (24 bytes) (mandatory) ---------------------------
|
||||
(ALACSpecificConfig) Decoder Info
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- Channel Layout Info (24 bytes) (optional) ----------------------------
|
||||
(ALAC Channel Layout Info) Channel Layout Info
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
If the channel layout is absent from the cookie, then the following assumptions are made:
|
||||
1 channel - mono
|
||||
2 channels - stereo in left, right order
|
||||
> 2 channels - no specific channel designation or role.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
The Apple Lossless codec stores specific information about the encoded stream in the ALACSpecificConfig. This
|
||||
info is vended by the encoder and is used to setup the decoder for a given encoded bitstream.
|
||||
|
||||
When read from and written to a file, the fields of this struct must be in big-endian order.
|
||||
When vended by the encoder (and received by the decoder) the struct values will be in big-endian order.

* Storing Apple Lossless Magic Cookie in Audio Files
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
|
||||
The Apple Lossless Magic Cookie is treated as opaque by file parsing code. The 'magic cookie' vended by the encoder
|
||||
is placed without modification into the audio file and the read from that file and passed (unmodified) to the decoder.
|
||||
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
* CAF File
|
||||
|
||||
In a CAF file (Core Audio File), the 'magic cookie' is stored in CAF's Magic Cookie chunk ('kuki').
|
||||
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
* MP4/M4A File
|
||||
|
||||
In an MP4/M4A file, the 'magic cookie' is encapsulated in the AudioSample entry of a Sound Description box ('stsd').
|
||||
An ISO style full box header to describe the ALACSpecificConfig portion is appended to the AudioSampleEntry, followed by the
|
||||
'magic cookie' as it is vended by the encoder.
|
||||
|
||||
(All fields are stored in big-endian order: see ISO/IEC 14496-12 for a full description of the SoundDescription and AudioSampleEntry boxes, etc.)
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- SoundDescriptionBox (FullBox) ----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
SampleEntrySize // = sizeof(SoundDescriptionBox)(16) + sizeof (AudioSampleEntry)(AudioSampleEntry.SampleEntrySize)
|
||||
SampleEntryType // = 'stsd'
|
||||
VersionFlags // = 0
|
||||
EntryCount // = 1
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- Audio Sample Entry (REQUIRED) -----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
SampleEntrySize // sizeof(AudioSampleEntry)(36) + sizeof(full ISO box header)(12) + sizeof(Apple Lossless Magic Cookie)
|
||||
SampleEntryType // = 'alac', specifies that the AudioSampleEntry describes an Apple Lossless bitstream
|
||||
mReserved[6] // = 0
|
||||
dref index // = 1
|
||||
reserved[2] // = 0
|
||||
channel count // = number of channels as a uint_16 value
|
||||
sample size // = source pcm bitdepth (example = 16bit source pcm)
|
||||
predefined // = 0
|
||||
reserved // = 0
|
||||
sample rate // sample rate as a uint_32 value
|
||||
|
||||
Appended to AudioSampleEntry:
|
||||
|
||||
ALAC Specific Info Size // uint_32 value, = 36 (12 + sizeof(ALACSpecificConfig))
|
||||
ALAC Specific Info ID // uint_32 value, = 'alac', format ID which matches the Audio Sample Entry SampleEntryType field
|
||||
Version Flags // uint_32 value, = 0
|
||||
|
||||
Apple Lossless Magic Cookie // 'magic cookie' vended from ALAC encoder (24 or 48 Bytes)
|
||||

* Compatibility
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
|
||||
|
||||
Previous versions of the Apple Lossless encoder vended a different 'magic cookie'. To ensure compatibility, the Apple Lossless decoder
|
||||
must be prepared to parse a 'magic cookie' in the format described below. Note that the 'magic cookie' defined above is
|
||||
encapsulated in the following method and can be extracted as a contiguous set of bytes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- Format Atom (12 bytes) --------------------------------
|
||||
(uint_32) Format Atom Size // = 12
|
||||
(uint_32) Channel Layout Info ID // = 'frma'
|
||||
(uint_32) Format Type // = 'alac'
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- ALAC Specific Info (36 bytes) (required) --------------
|
||||
(uint_32) ALAC Specific Info Size // = 36 (12 + sizeof(ALACSpecificConfig))
|
||||
(uint_32) ALAC Specific Info ID // = 'alac', format ID which matches the Audio Sample Entry SampleEntryType field
|
||||
(uint_32) Version Flags // = 0
|
||||
|
||||
[ Apple Lossless Magic Cookie (see above) ]
|
||||
|
||||
---------------- Terminator Atom (8 bytes) -----------------------------
|
||||
(uint_32) Channel Layout Info Size // = 8
|
||||
(uint_32) Channel Layout Info ID // = 0
