.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBroar_str2codec\fR converts a string to a RoarAudio Codec ID. It also supports some common aliases.
\fBroar_codec2str\fR is the reverse operation of \fBroar_str2codec\fR: It get's a name by the ID given.
If a \fBcodec\fR is valid the following should be true:
 roar_str2codec(roar_codec2str(codec)) == codec

Note that because of aliasing and case insensitivity the revers operation needs not to be true.
