[MPlayer-DOCS] CVS: main/DOCS/man/en mplayer.1,1.877,1.878

[Ivo van Poorten CVS]

CVS change done by Ivo van Poorten CVS

Update of /cvsroot/mplayer/main/DOCS/man/en
In directory mail:/var2/tmp/cvs-serv22536

Modified Files:
	mplayer.1 
Log Message:

Description of -af format was outdated. This updates it. Feel free to change
spelling or phrasing :)

Note: There's no official spelling of endianness. Personally I prefer
a single n, but the majority seems to use double n. Since I'm not a native
speaker, I used 'endianness' here.

-Select the bytes per sample and the format used for output from the
-filter layer.
-The option bps is an integer and denotes Bytes per sample.
-The format f is a string containing a concatenated mix of:
-.br
-alaw, mulaw or imaadpcm
-.br
-float or int
-.br
-unsigned or signed
-.br
-le or be (little- or big-endian)

+Change the current sample format.
+.PD 0
+.RSs
+.IPs format
+Sets the desired format.
+The general form is 'sbe', where s denotes the sign (either s for signed or u
+for unsigned), b denotes the number of bits per sample (16, 24 or 32) and e
+denotes the endianness (le equals to little-endian, be to big-endian and ne to
+the endianness that's native to the computer MPlayer is running on).
+Valid values (amongst others) are: s16le, u32be and u24ne.
+Exceptions to this rule are: u8, s8, floatle, floatbe, floatne, mulaw, alaw,
+mpeg2, ac3 and imaadpcm.
