This document defines the Opus interactive speech and audio codec.
Opus is designed to handle a wide range of interactive audio
applications, including Voice over IP, videoconferencing, in-game
chat, and even live, distributed music performances.  It scales from
low bitrate narrowband speech at 6 kbit/s to very high quality stereo
music at 510 kbit/s.  Opus uses both Linear Prediction (LP) and the
Modified Discrete Cosine Transform (MDCT) to achieve good compression
of both speech and music.  [STANDARDS-TRACK]

This document is a product of the Internet Wideband Audio Codec Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
