tcxmlcheck is Copyright (C) by Malanchini Marzio DESCRIPTION
tcxmlcheck Check a smil input file. Most of the options are used by transcode at run time. OPTIONS
-i name Specify the name of the input video/audio smil file [stdin]. -p name Specify the name of the ausiliary audio smil file [none] -B Binary output to stdout (used by transcode) [off] Force to print to stdout the vob structure of the smil file -S Write stdin into shared memory (used by transcode)[off]. This is used by transcode at run time to store the vob information that will be modified by calling tcxmlcheck with the -V or -A options. -V Check only video smil file [off]. This is used by transcode at run time: it read the smil file to override some information in the vob structure. -A Check only ausiliary audio smil file [off]. This is used by transcode at run time: it read the smil file to override some informa- tion in the vob structure. -v Print the version EXAMPLES
Command: tcxmlcheck -i filename.smil Return 0 if the input file is correct, 1 with an error message in the other cases. tcxmlcheck -i filename.smil -S -B -V Analyze the filename.smil and store the vob structure into share memory (used only by transcode at run time). tcxmlcheck -i filename.smil -B -V Retrive the content from the share memory related to filename.smil (used only by transcode at run time).
