libsndfile                 http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/
FFmpeg                     http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/

FLAC                       http://flac.sourceforge.net/
Gmerlin                    http://gmerlin.sourceforge.net/
GLADSPA                    http://www.ladspa.org/

[ LADSPA stands for "Linux Audio Developers Simple Plugin Architecture". This name is inaccurate, since neither is the functionality of LADSPA exclusively tied to the Linux kernel, nor are the developers of LADSPA related to Linux kernel development. The name LADSPA therefore furthers the confusion between the Linux kernel and the GNU/Linux system. As part of the GNU Project's effort to clear up this confusion, we refer to LADSPA as GLADSPA instead. For more information on why the name Linux does not fairly describe the GNU/Linux system, see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html ]
