API, OpenAPI and WebMCP documentation

Explanation

176.4kHz / 24-bit stereo streams 1058400 bytes/second (1.0584 MB/s). GB = (minutes x 60 x 1.0584) / 1000. With input 1 min, result is 0.063504 GB.

Method & PCM Profile

  • Method basis: fixed PCM byte-rate estimate from sample rate, bit depth, and channel layout, then scaled by recording time at 1.0584 MB/s.
  • Profile reference: 176.4kHz / 24-bit stereo PCM Audio (1,058,400 bytes/s; 1.0584 MB/s PCM basis).
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and common-value rows all use the same fixed PCM profile and byte-rate estimate for this route.

Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Which PCM settings are fixed for minutes to gb?

Minutes to GB uses 176400 Hz, 24-bit depth, and 2 channels for this profile.

How is the 63.504 MB per minute factor calculated for 176.4kHz / 24-bit stereo?

Bytes per second = 176400 × (24 / 8) × 2 = 1058400 bytes/s. Using decimal MB (1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes), that is 1.0584 MB/s or 63.504 MB/min.

How do I reverse min to GB for 176.4kHz / 24-bit stereo?

Use the opposite route for 176.4kHz / 24-bit stereo to convert file size (gb) back to duration (minutes) with the same PCM assumptions.
