FAAD2 WASM Bindings

This project provides a WebAssembly (WASM) binding for the FAAD2 AAC decoder, allowing it to be used in web applications.
The main motivation to provide a WASM based FAAD2Decoder replacement is to support decoding of AAC audio streams in environments where the native AudioDecoder API is not available or does not support AAC.

Currently only Chromium-based seem to natively support AAC-HE decoding - but there is no support for PS (Parametric Stereo).
This library allows you to decode AAC-HE and AAC-HE-v2 with PS in browsers that do not support it natively.

Usage

``javascript import FAAD2Decoder from '@ohrstrom/faad2-wasm/faad2_decoder.js'`

FAAD2Decoder works as a drop-in replacement for AudioDecoder

`javascript const audioDecoder = new FAAD2Decoder({ output: processAudio, error: onEncoderError, });

const asc = new Uint8Array([0x13, 0x14, 0x56, 0xe5, 0x98]) await audioDecoder.configure({ 'mp4a.40.5', sampleRate: 48_000, numberOfChannels: 2, description: asc.buffer, })
