wvunpack (1) Linux Manual Page
NAME
wvunpack – decodes wavpack encoded files
SYNOPSIS
-
wvunpack[-options] INFILE… [-oOUTFILE]
DESCRIPTION
wvunpack
-o switch, the resulting filename will be source-name.wav (or source-name.raw when -r used). Multiple WavPack input files may be specified resulting in multiple output files, and in that case -o may be used to specify an alternate target directory. Stdin and stdout may be specified with “-“. WavPack files are generally created with the wavpack program.
OPTIONS
-b
- blindly decode all stream blocks and ignore length info
-c
- do not decode audio but instead just extract cuesheet stored in APEv2 tag to stdout (equivalent to
-x“cuesheet”)
-cc
- extract cuesheet stored in APEv2 tag to source-name.cue file in same directory as decoded audio file (equivalent to
-xx“cuesheet=%a.cue”)
-d
- delete source file if successful (use with caution!)
–help
- display extended help
-i
- ignore .wvc file (forces hybrid lossy decompression)
-m
- calculate and display MD5 signature; verify if lossless
–no-utf8-convert
- leave extracted text tags in UTF-8 encoding during extraction or display
-o OUTFILE
- specify output filename (only if single source file) or target directory (must exist)
-q
- quiet (keep console output to a minimum)
-r
- force raw audio decode by skipping RIFF headers & trailers, results in source-name.raw
-s
- do not decode audio but simply display summary information about WavPack file to stdout
-ss
- do not decode audio but simply display summary and tag information about WavPack file to stdout
–skip=[sample|hh:mm:ss.ss]
- start decoding at specified sample or time index
-t
- copy input file’s time stamp to output file(s)
–until=[+|-][sample|hh:mm:ss.ss]
- stop decoding at specified sample or time index, specifying a
+causes sample/time to be relative to–skippoint, specifying a–causes sample/time to be relative to EOF
-v
- verify source data only (no output file created)
-w
- regenerate fresh wav header (ingore RIFF data stored in WavPack file)
-x “Field”
- do not decode audio but instead just extract the specified tag field to stdout
-xx “Field[=file]”
- extract the specified tag field to named file in same directory as decoded audio file; optional filename specification may contain
%awhich is replaced with the audio file base name,%treplaced with the tag field name (note: comes from data for binary tags) and%ereplaced with the extension from the binary tag source file (or “txt” for text tag).
-y
- yes to overwrite warning (use with caution!)
