NAME¶
wvunpack - decodes wavpack encoded files
SYNOPSIS¶
wvunpack [-options]
INFILE... [-o OUTFILE]
DESCRIPTION¶
wvunpack decodes WavPack files back to their uncompressed
wav or raw form using the options provided. Unless overridden with the
-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 --skip
point, 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
%a which is replaced with the audio file base name, %t replaced
with the tag field name (note: comes from data for binary tags) and %e
replaced with the extension from the binary tag source file (or
“txt” for text tag).
-y
yes to overwrite warning (use with caution!)
