✨ fpcalc — Audio Fingerprint calculator ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the fpcalc(1) page, this is the chromaprint manual, section 1, and it's literally the moment you learn how to get audio fingerprints 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fpcalc [options] AUDIO_FILE [AUDIO_FILE ...]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so fpcalc displays the audio fingerprint of an audio file 🎀 that's it. that's the whole job. give it a file, it gives you the fingerprint. iconic behavior honestly.

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -length SECS — this sets the length of the audio data that gets used for the fingerprint calculation. the default is 120, no cap 👑 so if you don't say anything, it's doing 120 seconds of audio, periodt.
  • -raw — this one outputs the raw uncompressed fingerprint. like, no compression, just the raw vibes ✨
heads up bestie: the synopsis says AUDIO_FILE can be repeated (AUDIO_FILE ...) so multiple files are a thing the usage line allows 🫶
