NAME

   bs1770gain - lundness scanner and normalizer based on ITU-R BS.1770

SYNOPSIS

   bs1770gain [options] <file/dir> [<file/dir> ...]

DESCRIPTION

   BS1770GAIN  is  a loudness scanner compliant with ITU-R BS.1770 and its
   flavors EBU R128, ATSC A/85, and ReplayGain 2.0. It  helps  normalizing
   the loudness of audio and video files to the same level.

   See bs1770gain --help for experimental options.
          Command line arguments can appear in any order.

   -h,--help
          print this message and exit

   -i,--integrated
          calculate integrated loudness

   -s,--shorterm
          calculate maximum shortterm loudness

   -m,--momentary
          claculate maximum momentary loudness

   -r,--range
          calculate loudness range

   -p,--samplepeak
          calculate maximum sample peak

   -t,--truepeak
          calculate maximum true peak

   -b <timestamp>,--begin <timestamp>
          begin   decoding   at   timestamp   (in   microseconds,  format:
          hh:mm:ss.mus)

   -d <duration>,--duration <duration>
          let   decoding   last   duration   (in   microseconds,   format:
          hh:mm:ss.mus)

   -u <method>,--use <method>
          base  replay  gain  calculation  on  method (with respect to the
          -a/--apply  and  -o/--output  options),  methods:   "integrated"
          (default),  "shortterm",  or  "momentary"  experimental methods:
          "momentary-mean"  (same  as  "integrated"),  "momentary-maximum"
          (same  as "momentary"), "shortterm-mean", or "shortterm-maximum"
          (same as "shortterm")

   -a     apply the EBU/ATSC/RG album gain to the output  (in  conjunction
          with the -o/--output option)

   -o <folder>,--output <folder>
          write  RG  tags or apply the EBU/ATSC/RG gain, respectively, and
          output to folder -f <file>,--file <file> write analysis to file

   -x,--extensions
          enable following extensions/defaults:

          1)  rename files according to TITLE tag

          2)  read metadata from per-folder CSV file "folder.csv"

          3)  copy file "folder.jpg" from source to destination folder

          4)  automatically add the TRACK and DISC tags

          5)  calculate maximum true peak

          6)  convert to stereo

   -l,--list
          print FFmpeg format/stream information

   --ebu  calculate  replay  gain  according  to  EBU  R128  (-23.0  LUFS,
          default)

   --atsc calculate replay gain according to ATSC A/85 (-24.0 LUFS)

   --replaygain
          calculate replay gain according to ReplayGain 2.0 (-18.0 LUFS)

   --track-tags
          write track tags

   --album-tags
          write album tags

   --unit <unit>
          write tags with <unit>

   --apply <q>
          apply  the  EBU/ATSC/RG  gain to the output (in conjunction with
          the -o/--output option),  q=0.0  (album  gain)  ...  1.0  (track
          gain), default  0.0 (album gain)

   --audio <index>
          select   audio  index  (corresponds  to  [0:<index>]  in  FFmpeg
          listing, cf. -l/--list option)

   --video <index>
          select  video  index  (corresponds  to  [0:<index>]  in   FFmpeg
          listing, cf. -l/--list option)

   --stereo
          convert to stereo

   --drc <float>
          set AC3 dynamic range compression (DRC)

   --extension <extension>
          enable extension out of

          "rename":
                 rename files according to TITLE tag

          "csv": read metadata from per-folder CSV file "folder.csv"

          "jpg": copy file "folder.jpg" from source to destination folder
