94 Chapter 7: Formats Audio Encoding Kinoma offers five audio encoding formats. AAC - (Advanced Audio Compression) Provides the highest quality output and the smallest file sizes. AAC audio playback requires Kinoma Player 3 EX. ADPCM - Creates audio that is compatible with most Palm handheld devices, including all Palm OS 5 handhelds. It is compatible with the same handhelds as the Uncompressed audio format. ADPCM provides good quality compression. Because the audio is compressed, it makes greater performance demands during playback than the Uncompressed audio format, particularly on lower performance devices. Uncompressed - Applies no audio compression algorithm to the audio placed into the output file. It is compatible with a wide range of Palm handheld devices. Yamaha ADPCM - Provides about the same compression ratio and quality as the ADPCM audio encoding format. The Yamaha ADPCM audio encoding format can be played back on handheld devices running Palm OS 5. It can also be played on handhelds that contain a Yamaha audio chip. This includes some Sony CLIÉ Palm OS 4 models and Handspring handhelds with a Springboard module containing a Yamaha audio chip. CLIÉ Audio - Is a very high quality audio compression algorithm developed by Sony. It is supported on some Sony CLIÉ handheld devices. CLIÉ Audio is also supported by the Sony plug-in Audio Adapter. CLIÉ Audio is not supported on Palm OS 5 based Sony CLIÉ models.
