42 * \brief Translator Cost Table definition.
44 * \note The defined values in this table must be used to set
45 * the translator's table_cost value.
47 * \note The cost value of the first two values must always add
48 * up to be greater than the largest value defined in this table.
49 * This is done to guarantee a direct translation will always
50 * have precedence over a multi step translation.
52 * \details This table is built in a way that allows translation
53 * paths to be built that guarantee the best possible balance
54 * between performance and quality. With this table direct
55 * translation paths between two formats will always take precedence
56 * over multi step paths, lossless intermediate steps will always
57 * be chosen over lossy intermediate steps, and preservation of
58 * sample rate across the translation will always have precedence
59 * over a path that involves any re-sampling.
