oggz-rip - Man Page

Extract one or more logical bitstreams from an Ogg file.

Synopsis

oggz-rip [-o filename | --output filename] filename

oggz-rip [-h | --help] [-v | --version]

Description

oggz-rip extracts one or more tracks from an Ogg file.  In Ogg terminology, oggz-rip extracts one or more logical bitstreams.
 For example, to extract just the Vorbis audio track from any Ogg file:
 oggz-rip -c vorbis input.ogx > output.ogg

This will remove any other tracks: Skeleton, Theora, image, etc. The output will be a valid Ogg Vorbis I file, suitable for use on  hardware players that do not support multiplexed (ie. multi-track)  Ogg files.

If the input file contains multiple bitstreams of the desired type, then they can be selected by serialno with the -s option. Use oggz-info to view the serialno of each track in a file.

Options

oggz-rip accepts the following options:

Miscellaneous options

-o,  --output filename

Write output to the specified filename instead of printing it to standard output.

-h,  --help

Display usage information and exit.

-v,  --version

Output version information and exit.

Filter options

These options can be used multiple times. Pages matching ANY of  the filter options will be included into the output.

-s,  --serialno serialno

Output streams with given serialno.

-i,  --stream-index index

Filter by stream index. These are assigned to streams in the order of their BOS pages, starting at 0.

-c,  --content-type content-type

Filter by content-type.  Run oggz-known-codecs(1) for a full list of codecs known by the installed version of oggz.

Examples

Extract all bitstreams from file.ogg:

oggz rip -o output.ogg file.ogg

Extract only the Theora bitstream from file.ogv:

oggz rip -c theora -o output.ogv file.ogv
