🌸 mpeg2dec(1) — like, the manual page for extract_mpeg2 💅

okay bestie, this is the general commands manual page for extract_mpeg2, and yes the man page filename is mpeg2dec(1) which is a little chaotic of it but we move 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

extract_mpeg2 — extract MPEG video streams from a multiplexed stream. that's the whole job. no side quests. 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

extract_mpeg2 [-h] [-s [track]] [-t pid] [file]

like look at that. so clean. so demure. ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so extract_mpeg2 does exactly one iconic thing: it pulls MPEG video streams out of a multiplexed stream. that's it, that's the gig, and it eats every time 💅

and if you don't hand it a file? no problem bestie, it just reads from stdin. lowkey the easiest date ever 🌸

• -h — display help. that's it. she's helpful, she's brief, she's a queen 👑
• -s track — set the track number. the allowed range is 0-0xf or 0xe0-0xef. pick your lane, literally 🎀
• -t pid — use the transport stream demultiplexer, with pid in the range 0x10-0x1ffe. transport stream mode activated, no cap 🔥
