    Abstract: Audio parsers are applications that scan through a particular file and extract information from them.
Parsers are mainly used in design applications to test encoders and also in design of codecs. Players are needed
to play the files. Very few parsers are available that can parse as well as play audio files. Also, most players
available do not display parsed information. So, a well-designed audio parser and player is needed. Our project
is to design a gui application that can parse and play audio files. The codecs supported are MP3 and AAC. In
AAC, the ADIF and ADTS formats are supported. ID3v2 tags too are parsed and displayed. An audio player
in integrated to play the files from the application itself. Also, features are added to the player to enhance the
functionality. Play, pause, stop and seek features are supported. The application can be easily extended to other
codecs.
