ogginfo(1)                 Vorbis Tools                ogginfo(1)


NAME
       ogginfo  - gives information about Ogg files, and does extensive valid-
       ity checking


SYNOPSIS
       ogginfo [ -q ] [ -v ] [ -h ] file1.ogg ...  fileN.ogg


DESCRIPTION
       ogginfo reads one or more Ogg files and prints information about stream
       contents  (including  chained  and/or  multiplexed streams) to standard
       output. It will detect  (but  not  correct)  a  wide  range  of  common
       defects,  with  many  additional  checks  specifically  for  Ogg Vorbis
       streams.

       For all stream types ogginfo will print the filename  being  processed,
       the stream serial numbers, and various common error conditions.

       For  Vorbis  streams, information including the version used for encod-
       ing, the sample rate and number of channels, the bitrate  and  playback
       length, and the contents of the comment header are printed.

       Similarly,  for  Theora  streams,  basic information about the video is
       provided, including frame rate, aspect ratio, bitrate, length, and  the
       comment header.


OPTIONS
       -h     Show a help and usage message.

       -q     Quiet  mode. This may be specified multiple times. Doing so once
              will remove the detailed informative messages, twice will remove
              warnings as well.

       -v     Verbose mode. At the current time, this does not do anything.
