.\" Process this file with .\" groff -man -Tascii opusdec.1 .\" .TH opusdec 1 2012-08-31 "Xiph.Org Foundation" "opus-tools" .SH NAME opusdec \- decode audio from Opus format to WAV (or simple audio output) .SH SYNOPSIS .B opusdec [ .B -hV ] [ .B --rate Hz ] [ .B --gain dB ] [ .B --no-dither ] [ .B --force-wav ] [ .B --packet-loss pct ] [ .B --save-range file ] .B input.opus [ .B output.wav ] .SH DESCRIPTION .B opusdec decodes Opus files into PCM Wave (uncompressed) files. If the input file is specified as .B "-" , then .B opusdec will read from stdin. Likewise, an output filename of .B "-" will cause output to be to stdout. If no output is specified .B opusdec will attempt to play the audio in realtime if it supports audio playback on your system. .SH "OPTIONS" .IP "-h, --help" Print help message .IP "-V, --version" Display version information .IP "--quiet" Suppresses program output .IP "--rate" .br Force decoding at sampling rate n Hz .IP "--gain" .br Adjust the output volume n dB, negative values make the signal quieter. .IP "--no-dither" Do not dither 16-bit output .IP "--force-wav" Force including a wav header on output (e.g. for non-wav extensions and stdout) .IP "--packet-loss" Simulate n % random Opus packet loss .IP "--save-range" Saves check values for every frame to a file .SH EXAMPLES Decode a file .B input.opus to .B output.wav .RS opusdec input.opus output.wav .RE Play a file .B input.opus and force output at 48000 regardless of the original sampling rate .br .I (48kHz output may be faster, due to avoiding resampling and some sound hardware produces higher quality output when run at 48kHz) .RS opusdec --rate 48000 input.opus .RE Re-encode a high bitrate Opus file to a lower rate .RS opusdec --force-wav input.opus - | opusenc --bitrate 64 - output.opus .RE Play an http stream .B http://icecast.somwhere.org:8000/stream.opus with the help of curl on a system with pulseaudio .br .I (press ctrl-c to quit) .RS curl http://icecast.somwhere.org:8000/stream.opus | padsp opusdec - .RE .SH AUTHORS .br Jean-Marc Valin <jmvalin@jmvalin.ca> .br Gregory Maxwell <greg@xiph.org> .SH BUGS Opusdec does not currently reject all invalid files which it should reject. It also doesn't provide very helpful output for the corrupted files it does reject. Use \fBopusinfo\fR(1) for somewhat better diagnostics. .SH SEE ALSO .BR opusenc (1), .BR opusinfo (1)
