NAME

oggz-rip — 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 removed 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 Vorbis, the desired once can be specified 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 filename, --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.

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

-s serialno, --serialno serialno: Output streams with given serialno.
-i index, --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 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
