SYNOPSIS

10

DESCRIPTION

12       OggDump  gives  detailed information about an ogg video file and prints
13       these information with a given detail level.
14
15       Ogg files consist of a number of streams (video and  audio).  From  the
16       Ogg-container  perspective,  the  streams are devided into pages. These
17       pages usually have nearly the same size. The pages can be  printed  out
18       with the -g option.
19
20       From  the  stream  perspective, every stream consists of packets. These
21       packets carry a bunch of compressed audio samples in case of  a  vorbis
22       stream or one video frame in case of a theora video stream. These pack‐
23       ets could be of variable length and are places into the ogg  pages.  To
24       print the packets, use the -p option.
