💖 INGESTS(1) 💖

okay bestie, gather round 🫶 this is the manual for ingests, from the General Commands Manual section. Yes it's a manpage, yes it's dry on purpose, but I'm about to make it make sense. Slay. ✨

✨ NAME ✨

ingests — build an auxiliary file for multicat 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ingests -p <PCR PID> [-m <payload size>]>] <input ts>

yes, the extra >] in there is exactly how it's written, don't @ me, I copy these things character for character 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So ingests is a companion application, and its whole personality is manipulating TS files. 🧚

What it does: it reads the PCR values of the file, and then it builds the auxiliary file that is necessary for multicat. Like, multicat literally cannot do its thing without it, periodt.

And the way that ingests plus multicat together make a simple and efficient TS file streamer? Iconic. That's the whole vibe. 🔥

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -h — shows a summary of the options. your little "help me bestie" flag 🙈
  • -m <payloadsize> — size of the payload. 🌸
  • -p <PCR PID> — the PCR PID to use. this one's kind of the main character, it's in the synopsis and everything 👑

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

Also: read the README file for more info about the configuration of ingests. fr fr, it's right there. 📖
