.TH "oggdec" "1" "2008 September 9" "Xiph.Org Foundation" "Vorbis Tools"
.SH "NAME"
oggdec - simple decoder, Ogg Vorbis file to PCM audio file (Wave or RAW).
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.B oggdec
[
.B -Qhv
] [
.B -b bits_per_sample
] [
.B -e endianness
] [
.B -R
] [
.B -s signedness
] [
.B -o outputfile

.B file ...
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.B oggdec
decodes Ogg Vorbis files into PCM-encoded ("uncompressed") audio files, either Wave or RAW format.
For each input file,
.B oggdec
writes to a filename based on the input filename, but with the extension changed to ".wav" or ".raw" as appropriate.
If the input file is specified as
.B "-"
, then
.B oggdec
will read from stdin, and write to stdout unless an output filename is specified. Likewise, an output filename of
.B -
will cause output to be to stdout.
Writing Wave format to stdout is a bad idea. Wave requires a seekable medium for the header to be rewritten after all the data is written out; stdout is not seekable.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IP "-Q, --quiet"
Suppresses program output.
.IP "-h, --help"
Print help message.
.IP "-V, --version"
Display version information.
.IP "-b n, --bits=n"
Bits per sample. Valid values are 8 or 16.
.IP "-e n, --endian=n"
Set endianness for 16-bit output. 0 (default) is little-endian (Intel byte order). 1 is big-endian (sane byte order).
.IP "-R, --raw"
Output in raw format. If not specified, writes Wave file (RIFF headers).
.IP "-s n, --sign=n"
Set signedness for output. 0 for unsigned, 1 (default) for signed.
.IP "-o filename, --output=filename"
Write output to specified filename. This option is only valid if one input [file] is specified, or if raw mode is used.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
Decode a file
.B enabler.ogg
to
.B enabler.wav
as little-endian signed 16-bit (default options):
.RS
oggdec enabler.ogg
.RE
Decode a file
.B enabler.ogg
to
.B enabler.raw
as headerless little-endian signed 16-bit:
.RS
oggdec --raw enabler.ogg
.RE
Decode
.B enabler.ogg
to
.B enabler.crazymonkey
as unsigned 8-bit:
.RS
oggdec -b 8 -s 0 -o enabler.crazymonkey enabler.ogg
.RE
Decode
.B enabler.ogg
to
.B enabler.raw
as big-endian signed 16-bit (any of the following):
.RS
oggdec -R -e 1 -b 16 enabler.ogg
.RE
.RS
oggdec -R -e 1 -b 16 -o enabler.raw - < enabler.ogg
.RE
.RS
oggdec -R -e 1 -b 16 - < enabler.ogg > enabler.raw
.RE
Mass decoding (foo.ogg to foo.wav, bar.ogg to bar.wav, quux.ogg to quux.wav, etc.):
.RS
