Coding > format parameter for setGenericSound solved

#137124 - SaruCoder - Wed Aug 08, 2007 4:07 am

Hey guys,

I'm looking at setGenericSound in nds/arm9/sound.h, and what are the values for the format parameter?

Code:

void setGenericSound( u32 rate, u8 vol, u8 pan, u8 format);

"format" refers to whether the sample is 8-bit or 16-bit. The value should be either 0 or 1.
I believe that 0 is for 8-bit and 1 is for 16-bit.

You are correct.
