VUSB-ANALYZER(1)					       Virtual USB Analyzer						  VUSB-ANALYZER(1)

NAME

       vusb-analyzer - tool for visualizing logs of USB packets

SYNOPSIS

       vusb-analyzer [OPTIONS] LOGFILE [LOGFILE...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  Virtual  USB Analyzer is tool for visualizing logs of USB packets, from hardware or software USB sniffer tools. It's the world's first
       tool to provide a graphical visualization along with raw hex dumps and high-level protocol analysis.

       The Virtual USB Analyzer is not itself a USB sniffer tool. It is just a user interface for visualizing logs. It currently supports two  log
       formats,  but  it's designed to be easily extensible. With a couple hundred lines of Python code, you can add support for your favorite log
       format.

       The Virtual USB Analyzer was developed at VMware as an efficient way to debug their own USB virtualization stack. They wanted a	tool  that
       made  it easy to see problems at a glance, and they wanted a way to solve both correctness and performance bugs. As a result, they ended up
       with what they think is a fairly unique tool. They're excited to have the opportunity to release this tool as open source software.

       Supported Log Formats

       * Logged USB traffic from debug builds of VMware Fusion, Workstation, or Player. See the tutorial for information on capturing such a log.

       * XML logs from the Ellisys USB Explorer 200, a hardware USB 2.0 analyzer.

       Features

       * Unique graphical timeline view.

       * Side-by-side diff mode: visually compare two log files.

       * Pluggable log format modules: VMware, Ellisys.

       * Pluggable protocol decoders: USB Chapter 9, Bluetooth, Storage, Cypress FX2.

       * Packet metrics and filtering tools.

       * Whole-bus analysis: analyze multiple devices concurrently.

       * Written in Python, with a GTK+ user interface.

       * Automatic "tail -f" mode: follow log files as they grow.

       * Loads large log files in the background. You can start browsing before the whole file is loaded into memory.

       * Automatic decompression of gzipped log files.

OPTIONS

       -t  Tail mode, start from the end of a growing log file.

NAME

       analyzer - program to analyze the music file(s) and put the data into IMMS database

SYNOPSIS

       analyzer filename [filename] [...]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the analyzer command.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       analyzer is a second most important piece of imms suite. It takes the list of filenames with songs (currently only mp3 and ogg formats are
       supported), makes acoustic analysis of them and put gethered data to the database. Analysis is rather slow - it has to decode the entire
       file - so it will take a while, but analyzer is smart enough to skip files that have already been analyzed.

       analyzer is running automatically by imms plugin, but you can also run it manually to analyze your whole music collection at once to
       benefit from acoustic correlations immediately.

       You can run the analysis your whole archive using following command:

       find /mnt/mp3 -type f -exec analyzer {} ;

       For more sofisticated examples please see Tips and Tricks section of upstream homepage: http://imms.luminal.org/.

FILES

       Program stores it's data in $HOME/.imms/ directory. For more detailed documentation please see upstream homepage: http://imms.luminal.org/.
