💖 ENCODE(1) — aka the dubdv page, bestie 💖

✨ NAME ✨

dubdv — insert audio into a digital video stream 🎧🎬

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dubdv [ options ] audio_inputfR [ filename or - for stdin ]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

dubdv reads the audio from a WAV file or the OSS DSP device and overwrites the existing audio in a raw DV file or stream. like, the old audio? gone. replaced. it's giving glow-up ✨

• --version — show the dubdv version number. short, sweet, iconic.
• -v, --verbose — show encoder statistics / status information. she'll tell you everything she's doing, and honestly? we love a transparent queen.
• -a, --audio-input=filter-name — choose the audio-input-filter: [none, >wav<, dsp]. WAV is the default audio_input format. the > and < are pointing at the default, iykyk 🫶
• -o, --output=filter-name — choose output-filter: [>raw<]. yeah, raw is the default. periodt.
• -t, --truncate — truncate output at end of DV input. bye bye extra bits 💀
• -r, --repeat=count — repeat the first video frame count times. ⚠️ heads up bestie: this option does not dub audio into the repeated frame. no audio in the repeats, fr fr.
