🎀 MP4(3) — the MP4 File Format Library 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the MP4 File Format Library, section 3 of your manual, and today's main character is one (1) tiny little function that tells you what audio vibes a file needs. no cap, it's a short one. let's go 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

MP4GetAudioProfileLevel — gets the minimum MPEG-4 audio profile and level required to render the contents of the file 🎧

like. the whole point. it's giving "can your player even handle this file" energy.

---

🌸 SYNTAX 🌸

#include <mp4.h>

u_int8_t MP4GetAudioProfileLevel(
        MP4FileHandle hFile
)

yes she's a one-argument queen 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hFile — specifies the mp4 file to which the operation applies. that's it. that's the whole argument list. hand her the file handle and she handles the rest 🫶

---

💖 RETURN VALUES 💖

She hands you back the current audio profile/level for the file.

and if you're sitting there like "okay but what do the numbers mean" — bestie, go read MP4SetAudioProfileLevel() for the known values. that's where the lore lives ✨

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

MP4GetAudioProfileLevel returns the minimum profile/level of MPEG-4 audio support that's necessary to render the contents of the file 🎶
