/**
 * SECTION:element-audioconvert
 *
 * Audioconvert converts raw audio buffers between various possible formats.
 * It supports integer to float conversion, width/depth conversion,
 * signedness and endianness conversion and channel transformations.
 *
 * <refsect2>
 * <title>Example launch line</title>
 * |[
 * gst-launch -v -m audiotestsrc ! audioconvert ! audio/x-raw,format=S8,channels=2 ! level ! fakesink silent=TRUE
 * ]| This pipeline converts audio to 8-bit.  The level element shows that
 * the output levels still match the one for a sine wave.
 * |[
 * gst-launch -v -m audiotestsrc ! audioconvert ! vorbisenc ! fakesink silent=TRUE
 * ]| The vorbis encoder takes float audio data instead of the integer data
 * generated by audiotestsrc.
 * </refsect2>

/*
 * design decisions:
 * - audioconvert converts buffers in a set of supported caps. If it supports
 *   a caps, it supports conversion from these caps to any other caps it
 *   supports. (example: if it does A=>B and A=>C, it also does B=>C)
 * - audioconvert does not save state between buffers. Every incoming buffer is
 *   converted and the converted buffer is pushed out.
 * conclusion:
 * audioconvert is not supposed to be a one-element-does-anything solution for
 * audio conversions.
