oggDump - prints out information of ogg video files (.ogv, .ogg or oga)
oggDump [options] file.ogv
OggDump gives detailed information about an ogg video file and prints
these information with a given detail level.
Ogg files consist of a number of streams (video and audio). From
the Ogg-container perspective, the streams are devided into pages. These
pages usually have nearly the same size. The pages can be printed out with
the -g option.
From the stream perspective, every stream consists of packets.
These packets carry a bunch of compressed audio samples in case of a vorbis
stream or one video frame in case of a theora video stream. These packets
could be of variable length and are places into the ogg pages. To toString
the packets, use the -p option.
- -g
- Dumps the stream pages of the file.
- -p
- Dumps the stream packets.
- -l
- <level>. Set the dump level (1-5). Default is 5, which means
all information are printed.
- -s
- Prompt for the stream that should be dumped. All other streams are ignored
and will not be printed.
- -o
- <file> Write the dump information to a file.
