# wavpackdec

WavpackDec decodes framed (for example by the WavpackParse element) Wavpack streams and decodes them to raw audio. Wavpack is an open-source audio codec that features both lossless and lossy encoding.

## Example launch line

     gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=test.wv ! wavpackparse ! wavpackdec ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! autoaudiosink

This pipeline decodes the Wavpack file test.wv into raw audio buffers and tries to play it back using an automatically found audio sink.
