✨ NAME ✨

extract_dca — extract DTS Coherent Acoustics audio from a MPEG stream. that's it, that's the girl. DTS audio out of a MPEG stream, no cap. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

extract_dca [-h] [-s [track]] [-t pid] [file]

so basically it's the command, some optional little flags, and optionally a file. she's low maintenance fr fr ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

extract_dca extracts DTS Coherent Acoustics audio from a MPEG stream. that's literally her one job and she does it flawlessly, main character energy only 💅

and here's the tea on where the input comes from: if you don't give her a file, she reads from stdin. so you can absolutely pipe things into her, she's not picky, she's flexible, she ate 🍓

• -h — display help. classic. she'll tell you what's up 🌈
• -s track — set track number. the valid range is 0-7 or 0x80-0x87, so like, don't freestyle outside that bestie 😭
• -t pid — use the transport stream demultiplexer, with pid in the range 0x10-0x1ffe. very specific, very demure, very mindful 👑
