π qmp3check β check and clean mp3 streams π
okay bestie, so this is qmp3check, one of the quelcom man pages, and honestly? it's giving file hygiene icon β¨
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
qmp3check [option]... file...
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so basically qmp3check reads your mp3 streams and goes on a lil scavenger hunt π looking for invalid frames or, like, just straight-up garbage. no cap.
which means it can pull double duty, and honestly we love a multitasking queen π:
- it works as an mp3 file checker β vibe check for your audio π
- but also as an mp3 file cleaner β because it can literally strip the garbage bits out of the streams π§Ήβ¨
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-D,--deleteβ delete invalid frames and garbage. use with care β this one does NOT play, bestie π it really deletes things. be careful fr fr.-h,--helpβ shows a brief help and then dips π-q,--quietβ no output messages. silent mode, main character energy, says nothing and leaves π€«-T,--delete-tagβ deletes the tag (if there is one). β οΈ important: the option--deletemust be set for this to be a thing. no--delete, no tag deletion, periodt.-v,--verboseβ shows more detailed info π spill the tea, tell me everything-V,--versionβ shows the version and exits. short and sweet π
π BUGS π
ngl, the tests have only been done with mpeg version 1 layer iii streams. so it may (or may not) work with other versions/layers β nobody's tested it, so we simply do not know π lowkey a mystery.
