ogginfo(1)                                 Vorbis Tools                                ogginfo(1)



NAME
       ogginfo - gives information about Ogg files, and does extensive validity checking


SYNOPSIS
       ogginfo [ -q ] [ -v ] [ -h ] file1.ogg ...  fileN.ogg


DESCRIPTION
       ogginfo  reads one or more Ogg files and prints information about stream contents (includ‐
       ing chained and/or multiplexed streams) to standard output. It will detect (but  not  cor‐
       rect)  a  wide  range  of common defects, with many additional checks specifically for Ogg
       Vorbis streams.

       For all stream types ogginfo will print the filename being processed,  the  stream  serial
       numbers, and various common error conditions.

       For  Vorbis  streams, information including the version used for encoding, the sample rate
       and number of channels, the bitrate and playback length, and the contents of  the  comment
       header are printed.

       Similarly,  for  Theora  streams, basic information about the video is provided, including
       frame rate, aspect ratio, bitrate, length, and the comment header.


OPTIONS
       -h     Show a help and usage message.

       -q     Quiet mode. This may be specified multiple times. Doing so  once  will  remove  the
              detailed informative messages, twice will remove warnings as well.

       -v     Verbose mode. At the current time, this does not do anything.
