Methods
 NameDescription
Public methodEqualsDetermines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object)
Protected methodFinalizeAllows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object)
Public methodGenerateBinaryImage Generates a binary representation of this WaveFormatExtensible and copies it into the given buffer.
Public methodGetHashCodeServes as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object)
Public methodGetTypeGets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object)
Protected methodMemberwiseCloneCreates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object)
Public methodParseBinaryImage Parses WaveFormatExtensible object by parsing the specified buffer containing a binary image.
Public methodToStringReturns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object)

Extension Methods
 NameDescription
Public Extension MethodBinaryImage Returns a binary image of an object that implements ISupportBinaryImage.
(Defined by ISupportBinaryImageExtensions)
Public Extension MethodCopyBinaryImageToStream Copies binary image of object that implements ISupportBinaryImage to a Stream.
(Defined by ISupportBinaryImageExtensions)
Public Extension MethodCopyImage This is a common optimized block copy function for any kind of data.
(Defined by Common)
Public Extension MethodGetEnumValueOrDefault Gets the enumeration constant for value, if defined in the enumeration, or a default value.
(Defined by EnumExtensions)
Public Extension MethodGetEnumValueOrDefaultT Gets the enumeration constant for this value, if defined in the enumeration, or a default value.
(Defined by EnumExtensions)
Public Extension MethodParseBinaryImageFromStream Parses binary image of object that implements ISupportBinaryImage from a Stream.

Example
For some special bit-encodings you may need to use the "WaveFormatExtensible" audio format, here is an example of how to use that format:
C#
using System;
using GSF.Media;
using GSF.Media.Sound;

static class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Generate an 8000 Hz, 32 bits per sample, mono channeled WAVE file in "Extensible" format
        WaveFile waveFile = new WaveFile(8000, 32, 1, (ushort)WaveFormat.WaveFormatExtensible);

        // Apply the "WaveFormatExtensible" extra parameters
        WaveFormatExtensible extensible = new WaveFormatExtensible(waveFile.FormatChunk);
        waveFile.ExtraParameters = extensible.BinaryImage;

        // Generate the EBS Alert noise
        DTMF.Generate(waveFile, DTMF.EmergencyBroadcastSystemAlert, 0.25D);

        // Save the generated tone
        waveFile.Save("ExtensibleTest.wav");

        Console.Write("File available to be played from Windows Media Player...");
        Console.ReadKey();
    }
}
