.Sh DESCRIPTION
Report on the content of an elementary stream containing H.264
(MPEG-4/AVC), H.262 (MPEG-2) or AVS video data.
.Ss Files
.Bl -tag
.It Ar in_file
is the Elementary Stream file (but see -stdin below)
.El
.Ss What to report
The default is to report on H.262 items, AVS frames or H.264 NAL units.
Other choices are:
.Bl -tag
.It Fl frames
Report by frames. The default for AVS.
.It Fl findfields
Report on any fields in the data. Ignored for AVS.
.It Fl afd
Report (just) on AFD changes in H.262. Ignored for the other types of file.
.It Fl es
Report on ES units.
.El
.Pp
Reporting on frames may be modified by:
.Bl -tag
.It Fl framesize
Report on the sizes of frames (mean, etc.).
.It Fl frametype
Report on the numbers of different type of frame.
.El
.Pp
(in fact, both of these imply -frame).
.Ss Switches
.Bl -tag
.It Fl "err stdout"
Write error messages to standard output (the default)
.It Fl "err stderr"
Write error messages to standard error (Unix traditional)
.It Fl stdin
Input from standard input, instead of a file
.It Fl v , Fl verbose
For H.262 data, output information about the data
in each MPEG-2 item. For ES units, output information
about the data in each ES unit. Ignored for H.264 data.
.It Fl q , Fl quiet
Only output summary information (i.e., the number
of entities in the file, statistics, etc.)
.It Fl x
Show details of each NAL unit as it is read.
.It Fl stdin
Take input from <stdin>, instead of a named file
.It Fl max Ar max_units , Fl m Ar max_units
Maximum number of NAL units/MPEG-2 items/AVS frames/ES units
to read. If -frames, then the program will stop after
that many frames. If reading 'frames', MPEG-2 and AVS will
also count sequence headers and sequence end.
.It Fl pes , ts
The input file is TS or PS, to be read via the PES to
ES reading mechanisms
.It Fl pesreport
Report on PES headers. Implies
.Fl pes No and Fl q .
.El
.Ss Stream type:
If input is from a file, then the program will look at the start of
the file to determine if the stream is H.264, H.262 or AVS data. This
process may occasionally come to the wrong conclusion, in which case
the user can override the choice using the following switches.
.Pp
If input is from standard input (via -stdin), then it is not possible
for the program to make its own decision on the input stream type.
Instead, it defaults to H.262, and relies on the user indicating if
this is wrong.
.Bl -tag
.It Fl h264 , avc
Force the program to treat the input as MPEG-4/AVC.
.It Fl h262
Force the program to treat the input as MPEG-2.
.It Fl avs
Force the program to treat the input as AVS.
