NAME

       avisync - adjust audio synchronisation

SYNOPSIS

       avisync [ -o file -i file -q -n num -b num -a track -f commentfile ]

DESCRIPTION

       avisync shift audio on frame basis.

OPTIONS

       -o name
	      Specify the name of the output file.

       -i file
	      Specify the name of the input file.

       -q     be less verbose.

       -n count
	      shift audio by count frames. If count is positive, audio starts with audio frame count at the beginning of the AVI-file. If count is
	      negative, audio is prepended count padding frames.

       -a track
	      Specify the number of the audio channel to shift.

       -b num Specify if avisync should write an VBR mp3 header into the AVI file. Default is 1 because it does not hurt. num is either 1 or 0.

       -f commentfile
	      Read AVI tombstone data for header comments from commentfile. See /docs/avi_comments.txt for a sample.

EXAMPLES

       The command

       avisync -i my_file1.avi -o out.avi -n -10

       puts 10 audio frames at the beginning of the AVI-file.

       E.g. if the audio is delayed about 200 ms (0.2 seconds) and you're working with a 25 frames per second AVI-File, you need to shift the
       audio 200/40 = 5 frames since one frame is 40 ms long.

NAME

       avimerge - merge several AVI-files into one

SYNOPSIS

       avimerge -o name -i file1 [ file2 [ ... ] ] [ -p file ] [ -a num ] [ -A num ] [ -b num ] [ -c ] [ -f commentfile ] [ -x indexfile ]

COPYRIGHT

DESCRIPTION

       avimerge is a  versatile tool.  It can contatenate several AVI files into one. It can also be used to fix an index of a broken file and can
       also replace audio tracks or muxes new ones. It can read raw AC3 and MP3 files for multplexing.

OPTIONS

       -o name
	      Specify the name of the output file.

       -i file
	      Specify the name(s) of the input file(s) to merge into the output file.

       -p file
	      Specify the name of the audio file to multiplex into the output file. The type of file can be either another AVI file or an MP3 or
	      AC3 file.

       -b num Specify if avimerge should write an VBR mp3 header into the AVI file. Default is dependent on the input file (and usually correct).
	      num is either 1 or 0.

       -c     Drop video frames in case audio is missing [off]
	      Only when merging multiple AVI files. Some AVI files run a little bit (usually for one or two video frames) short on audio. This
	      means avimerge cannot keep up sync when concatinating them. The files play fine when played individually but not when merged because
	      audio from the new file gets played back with video from the old file.  avimerge will print a message like

		No audiodata left for track 0->0 (59950.25=59950.25) continuing ..

	      When you turn on the -c option, the video which is too much will be dropped.

       -f commentfile
	      Read AVI tombstone data for header comments from commentfile. See /docs/avi_comments.txt for a sample.

       -x indexfile
	      Read the AVI index from indexfile.  See aviindex(1) for information on how to create such a file.

       -a num Specify the number of the audio track you want to use from the input file.

       -A num Specify the number of the audio track you want to use in the output file. If you specify an existing track number, the track will be
	      replaced. If omitted, the next free slot will be used.

EXAMPLES

       The command

       avimerge -o big.avi -i my_file1.avi my_file2.avi my_file3.avi

       merges the three input files my_file[123].avi into one big AVI-file big.avi.

       avimerge -o out.avi -i in.avi -p audio2.avi -a 1

       merges track number 1 form in.avi to the next free track number in out.avi. You can create audio-only AVI-files using

       transcode -i song.mp3 -x null,mp3 -g 0x0 -y raw -a 1 -o audio2.avi -u 50

       The command

       avimerge -o out.avi -i in.avi -p sound.mp3

       merges the file sound.mp3 as an additional audio track into out.avi.
