AudioCodec
On this page
An audio format as browsers name it: mp4a.40.2, opus.
Use it to tell a player which format a sound is in. For video, use VideoCodec.
Shape
One value, held as text in one set form, with no parts: pcm-s16.
Example
AudioCodec("opus")AudioCodec(raw) checks the text, and text that isn't one breaks the format rule.
text.parse(raw, as: AudioCodec) reads one from text that comes from outside. Text that isn't one at all fails malformed, such as aac, mp4a or Opus.

AudioCodec is in the group Media and visual, and has been in Jadpo since 0.1.0.
Text form
text.from writes one standard text form, the same form text.parse reads back: mp4a.40.2, opus and flac.
How it is stored
It is stored in one column named for the field, of type text. flac is stored as 'flac'.
How it is shown to people
text.format(value, locale:) shows it to people in their locale.
