NAME
oidua - audio file metadata lister
SYNOPSIS
oidua [options] directory [...]
DESCRIPTION
lists meta data of audio files. What information and how it is
presented is customizable. It is possible to format output in csv,
html, xml or for human beings.
OPTIONS
-B, --bg COLOR
Set HTML background color
-D, --date
Display datestamp header
--debug
Output debug trace to stderr
-e, --exclude DIRECTORY
Exclude directory from search
-f, --file FILE

--ignore-bad
Don’t list files that cause Audiotype failure
-i, --ignore-case
Case-insensitive directory sorting
-I, --indent N

-m, --merge
Merge identical directories
Basedirs with identical names are merged. This Means that all
their subdirs are considered being subdirs of a single
directory, and therefore sorted and displayed together. If there
are duplicate names among the subdirs then those are also
merged.
-o, --output STRING
Set output format to STRING
Anything enclosed by brackets is considered a field. A field
must have the following syntax:
[TAG]
[TAG,WIDTH]
[TAG,WIDTH,SUFFIX]
[TAG,SUFFIX]
TAG is any of the following characters:
a list of bitrates in Audiolist compatible format
b bitrate with suffix (i.e. 192k)
B bitrate in bps
d depth; distance from respective basedir
f number of audio files (including spacers)
l length in minutes and seconds
L length in seconds
m time of last change
M time of last change in seconds since the epoch
n directory name (indented)
N directory name
p profile
P full path
q quality
s size with suffix (i.e. 65.4M)
S size in bytes
t file type
T bitrate type:
~ mixed files
C constant bitrate
L lossless compression
V variable bitrate
WIDTH defines the exact width of the field. The output
is cropped to this width if needed. Negative
values will give left aligned output. Cropping is
always done on the right.
SUFFIX lets you specify a unit to be concatenated to all
non-empty data.
Other interpreted sequences are:
\[ [
\] ]
\n new line
\t tab character
Unescaped brackets are forbidden unless they define a
field.
Note: If you have any whitespace in your output string
you must put it inside quotes or otherwise it will not
get parsed right.
-q, --quiet
Omit progress indication
-s, --strip
Strip output of field headers and empty directories
-S, --stats
Display statistics results
-t, --time
Display elapsed time footer
-T, --text COLOR

-V, --version

-w, --wildcards
