What is Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR)
Amr Files
Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) is an audio data compression scheme optimized for speech coding. AMR was adopted as the standard speech codec by 3GPP in October 1998 and is now widely used in GSM and UMTS. It uses link adaptation to select from one of eight different bit rates based on link conditions.
AMR is an audio format which is extensively used in mobile devices in various applications ranging from normal audio player/recorder to VoIP kind of applications. AMR can be further categorized as: AMR-NB( NarrowBand ) and AMR-WB( WideBand ).
Almost any player on any platform can open mp3 files. The audio is compressed with loss of quality, but the loss is negligible for the typical user, and the file size is usually less than that of the original files. ARM player is freeware and playing ARM file can be done by adding the file to the main interface and clicking on “play” to decode it. Files in AMR format can be opened with Apple QuickTime Player, RealNetworks RealPlayer, MIKSOFT Mobile Media Converter and VideoLAN VLC media player in Mac Os, Microsoft Windows-based systems and Linux systems. How to Play AMR Files on VLC Step 1: Click Start and choose Control Panel. Step 2: Click on Programs and Features where you will find all the installed programs on the computer. Step 3: Select the VLC media player and click on Uninstall/Change. In this case, you may remove VLC media player first.
AMR-WB ensures that speech quality is optimized in a mobile station by verifying its ability to determine when to request a change to another codec with either more or less error correction and protection as signal quality changes. AMR-NB (Adaptive Multi-Rate Narrowband) is a vocoder employed in low-bitrate applications like mobile phones.
AMR is also a file format for storing spoken audio using the AMR codec. Many modern mobile telephone handsets will allow you to store short recordings in the AMR format, it should be remembered that AMR is a speech format and is unlikely to give ideal results for other audio. The common filename extension is .amr.
