okay so bestie, you know that weird silver frisbee in your drive? the fancy one with the high-res audio? yeah, this little cutie is dvdainfo, and she lives in the DVDAINFO(1) manual section, and she is literally just here to spill every last detail about your DVD-Audio disc. no gatekeeping. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

dvdainfo β€” prints information about a DVD-Audio disc. that's it. that's the whole job. and she eats every single time. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

dvdainfo [OPTIONS]

like, no positional args, no drama. just options. she's low maintenance, highkey iconic. ✨


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the vibe: dvdainfo takes a mounted DVD-Audio disc and writes information about it to standard output. (yes the original says "about the it" and honestly? relatable typo energy, we love her anyway. 🫢)

and what info, you ask? bestie she does NOT hold back:

  • the length
  • the start sector
  • the end sector
  • the codec
  • the sample rate
  • the channel count
  • the bits-per-sample

…of every single track in every single title. every. one. no track left behind. periodt. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

  • -h, --help β€” shows you a whole list of options and then dips out. the "wait what are the flags again" rescue button. πŸ™ˆ
  • --version β€” displays the version and exits. cute little flex, honestly. ✨
  • -c, --cdrom=CDROM β€” tells her which CDROM device your mounted disc is chillin' on. πŸ“
  • -A, --audio-ts=DIR β€” the path to the AUDIO_TS directory inside the mounted disc. yes, the folder literally named AUDIO_TS. she knows the one. πŸ’œ
