AUDIO ENCODING ALGORITHMS
There is a wide variety of audio encoding algorithms implemented in the codecs
belonging to the Quantum Family. This variety allows a better adaptation to the
different scenarios where requirements of bandwidth, delay and quality can be
very different.

OPUS
MPEG and OPUS decoding make use of Error Concealment tools. There are some
scenarios where FEC mechanisms cannot be used due to bandwidth or delay
restrictions. For those cases, a method like Error Concealment to minimize the
impact of packet losses in form of artifacts on the decoded audio is the perfect
complement.
