PGM Raw at a glance
PGM Raw
The raw PGM branch reflects the practical evolution of Netpbm-style tool formats: keep the tiny header and easy parsing, but move the pixel raster into a binary form that is much more usable for real data sizes.
SLN at a glance
SLN
Telephony systems often value simple, predictable raw media assets over consumer-facing container polish, which is why formats like SLN remain operationally relevant long after their user-facing visibility disappears.

What changes when converting PGM Raw to SLN?
Convert to SLN when preparing prompts, voicemail assets, on-hold audio, or other sound files for Asterisk-style telephony systems that expect raw signed-linear input. It is the right target when PBX compatibility and predictable call-audio handling matter more than metadata or ordinary media-player support.
What should I review after converting PGM Raw to SLN?
After conversion, review these destination checks: Open converted output in Asterisk and verify behavior on real samples; Compare output against the expected depends quality profile; Not a general-purpose consumer exchange format.
How can I keep quality stable in PGM Raw to SLN conversion?
Run representative samples, keep settings deterministic, and monitor these risks: Requires workflow context to interpret sample-rate-specific extensions correctly; Not a general-purpose consumer exchange format; Validate destination compatibility before large-batch conversion.
