NAME
flake - Alternative Free Lossless Audio Codec encoder
SYNOPSIS
flake [options] [input.wav] [output.flac]
DESCRIPTION
flake is an alternative encoder for the Free Lossless Audio Codec. Most
tests turn out very similar or slightly better compression than the
FLAC reference encoder, and it generally encodes significantly faster.
Decoding times of the generated files are also close to those made by
the reference encoder.
OPTIONS
-h Print out list of commandline options
-p # Padding bytes to put in header (default: 4096)
-0..-12
Compression level (default: 5)
-b # Block size [16 - 65535] (default: 4608)
-l # Maximum prediction order [0 - 32] (default: 8)
-o # Prediction order selection method (0 = maximum, 1 = estimate
(default), 2 = 2-level, 3 = 4-level, 4 = 8-level, 5 = full
