Hi John,

Thank you for your detailed answer!
I am really not an expert in programming, so I couldn't do this programming
you're talking about.
But basically I just want to find out what is the current state of
development.I need to find out about these things for my disseration.

If you don't know about some projects, do you (the others as wel, of course)
maybe care to share your views/opinions about the future of mpeg4 as a new
and better audio coding system. Or will it rather be the music synthesis
part of it, that will make it stand out from the other coding
systems/standards?
As well I've seen some mpeg4 codecs out, at least for the MS Media Player.
Is SA already part of this, or are these just video codecs?
I hope these questions are not completely out of place. I am new to SA and
so I don't know really what is possible yet, what could be possible and just
came across this question about the future of mpeg4 as an audio coding
standard.

Thanks again for your help!

All the best,

   Michael
