tccat - concatenate multimedia streams from medium and print on the standard output SYNOPSIS
tccat -i name [ -t magic ] [ -T title[,chapter[,angle]] ] [ -L ] [ -S n ] [ -P ] [ -a ] [ -d mode ] [ -v ] COPYRIGHT
tccat is Copyright (C) by Thomas Oestreich. DESCRIPTION
tccat is part of and usually called by transcode. However, it can also be used independently. tccat reads source (from stdin if not explicitely defined) and prints on the standard output. Directory contents is concatenated, if source files have the same format. Multiple AVI-files are also supported. OPTIONS
-i name Specify input source. If ommited, stdin is assumed. You can specify a file, directory, device, mountpoint or host address as input source. tccat usually handles the different types correctly. -t magic Tell tccat about the type of input. Currently only dvd is supported - any other parameter will be ignored. -T title[,chapter[,angle]] Select DVD title and extract only a single chapter with selected viewing angle. Setting the argument chapter to -1 means to process all available chapters on the DVD. If this option is given, the input type of dvd will also be assumed (see option -t). -L This option tells tccat to loop through all chapters starting at the one given with the option -T. -S n Seek to program stream (VOB) offset nx2kB before starting output. -P Stream full DVD title specified by -T. -a Use this option to dump an AVI-file/socket audio stream. The default is to extract and concatenate AVI-file video stream. -d level With this option you can specify a bitmask to enable different levels of verbosity (if supported). You can combine several levels by adding the corresponding values: QUIET 0 INFO 1 DEBUG 2 STATS 4 WATCH 8 FLIST 16 VIDCORE 32 SYNC 64 COUNTER 128 PRIVATE 256 -v Print version information and exit. NOTES
tccat is a front end for streaming various source types and is used in transcode's import modules. EXAMPLES
The command tccat -i /dev/dvd -T 1,-1 | mplayer - reads all chapters belonging to title 1 of a DVD (assuming that /dev/dvd/ is a symbolic link to a real DVD device) and pipes a MPEG program stream into player. AUTHORS

tcmodinfo(1) General Commands Manual tcmodinfo(1) NAME
tcmodinfo - Get and Set information in transcode modules SYNOPSIS
tcmodinfo [ -i name ] [ -m path ] [ -t type ] [ -M param ] [ -C param ] [ -s socket ] [ -p ] [ -d verbosity ] [ -v ] COPYRIGHT
tcmodinfo is Copyright (C) by Tilmann Bitterberg/Transcode Team DESCRIPTION
tcmodinfo loads a supplied transcode(1) module and prints its parameters, or inquiry about default settings. It can also connect to transcode through a socket to do runtime configuration of transcode and its filters. Anyway, this last feature may be moved to some other helper program in future releases. OPTIONS
-i name Specify the name of the module. Name is specified without the prefix (i.e., filter_)_ and without the suffix .so So if you want information about filter_smooth.so, just supply smooth -m path Look in Path instead of the compiled-in module path for a module. -t type Specify the Type of module to load. Default is filter modules. In current (1.1.0) release, tcmodinfo support 'filter', 'encode' and 'multiplex' module types. More types will be added in future releases, to cover all the transcode module range. -M parameter Print out the default setting of given parameter of a given (use -i/-t options too) module. If parameter isn't known, nothing will be print out. Caution: -M can't be used together with -C -C configuration string Request to configure the module using given configuration string. Meaning of configuration string is of course module dependent, but format is always param1:key1=val1:param2:param3:key2=val2 This option is used for debug purposes, you usually shouldn't need it. Caution: -C can't be used together with -M -s socket Connect to socket socket. You can use this socket to do runtime configuration of transcode. For all the boring details about the socket protocol have a look at /docs/filter-socket.txt. transcode has to be started with the --socket option to open the socket. -d verbosity Specify the verbosiness level to use, like transcode does. Default value is 1 (TC_INFO verbosiness). -p Print the compiled-in module path and exit. -v Print version information and exit. EXAMPLES
The command tcmodinfo -i smooth prints information about the smooth filter. tcmodinfo -i levels -t filter same as above for levels filter (-t filter it's the default) tcmodinfo -i raw -t multiplex same as above for raw multiplexor tcmodinfo -i xvid -t encode same as above for XviD encoder transcode --socket /tmp/tc-socket & echo help | tcmodinfo -s /tmp/tc-socket prints the socket help text and exits. tcmodinfo -s /tmp/tc-socket Will drop you into an interactive "shell" where you can talk to the socket.
