A format conversion provider provides format conversion services from one or
more input formats to one or more output formats. Converters include codecs,
which encode and/or decode audio data, as well as transcoders, etc. Format
converters provide methods for determining what conversions are supported and
for obtaining an audio stream from which converted data can be read.


The source format represents the format of the incoming audio data, which
will be converted.

 The target format represents the format of the processed, converted audio data. This is the format of the data that can be read from the stream returned by one of the getAudioInputStream methods.
