LAME version 3.87 (beta 1, Oct 13 2000)    (http://www.mp3dev.org)

usage: lame [options] <infile> [outfile]

<infile> and/or <outfile> can be "-", which means stdin/stdout.

RECOMMENDED :  lame -h input.mp3 output.wav

OPTIONS :
  Input options:
    -r              input is raw pcm
    -x              force byte-swapping of input
    -s sfreq        sampling frequency of input file(kHz) - default 44.1kHz
    --mp1input      input file is a MPEG LayerI   file
    --mp2input      input file is a MPEG LayerII  file
    --mp3input      input file is a MPEG LayerIII file
    --ogginput      input file is a Ogg Vorbis file

  Operational options:
    -m <mode>       (s)tereo, (j)oint, (f)orce or (m)ono  (default j)
                    force = force ms_stereo on all frames.
    -a              downmix from stereo to mono file for mono encoding
    -d              allow channels to have different blocktypes
    -S              don't print progress report, VBR histograms
    --disptime <arg>print progress report every arg seconds
    --ogg           encode to Ogg Vorbis instead of MP3
    --freeformat    produce a free format bitstream
    --decode        input=mp3 file, output=wav
    -t              disable writing wav header when using --decode
    --comp  <arg>   choose bitrate to achive a compression ratio of <arg>
    --scale <arg>   scale input (multiply PCM data) by <arg>
    --athonly       only use the ATH for masking
    --noath         disable the ATH for masking
    --athlower x    lower the ATH x dB
    --raise-smr x   0 <= x <= 1, 0 default, 1 maximum SMR
    --short         use short blocks
    --noshort       do not use short blocks
    --voice         experimental voice mode
    --preset type   type must be phone, voice, fm, tape, hifi, cd or studio
                    "--preset help" gives some more infos on these

  CBR (constant bitrate, the default) options:
    -h              higher quality, but a little slower.  Recommended.
    -f              fast mode (lower quality)
    -b <bitrate>    set the bitrate in kbps, default 128 kbps

  ABR options:
    --abr <bitrate> specify average bitrate desired (instead of quality)

  VBR options:
    -v              use variable bitrate (VBR)
    --vbr-old       use old variable bitrate (VBR) routine
    --vbr-new       use new variable bitrate (VBR) routine
    -V n            quality setting for VBR.  default n=4
                    0=high quality,bigger files. 9=smaller files
    -b <bitrate>    specify minimum allowed bitrate, default  32 kbps
    -B <bitrate>    specify maximum allowed bitrate, default 320 kbps
    -F              strictly enforce the -b option, for use with players that
                    do not support low bitrate mp3 (Apex AD600-A DVD/mp3 player)
    -t              disable writing Xing VBR informational tag
    --nohist        disable VBR histogram display

  MP3 header/stream options:
    -e <emp>        de-emphasis n/5/c  (obsolete)
    -c              mark as copyright
    -o              mark as non-original
    -p              error protection.  adds 16bit checksum to every frame
                    (the checksum is computed correctly)
    --nores         disable the bit reservoir
    --strictly-enforce-ISO   comply as much as possible to ISO MPEG spec

  Filter options:
    -k              keep ALL frequencies (disables all filters),
                    Can cause ringing and twinkling
  --lowpass <freq>        frequency(kHz), lowpass filter cutoff above freq
  --lowpass-width <freq>  frequency(kHz) - default 15% of lowpass freq
  --highpass <freq>       frequency(kHz), highpass filter cutoff below freq
  --highpass-width <freq> frequency(kHz) - default 15% of highpass freq
  --resample <sfreq>  sampling frequency of output file(kHz)- default=automatic
  --cwlimit <freq>    compute tonality up to freq (in kHz) default 8.8717

  ID3 tag options:
    --tt <title>    audio/song title (max 30 chars for version 1 tag)
    --ta <artist>   audio/song artist (max 30 chars for version 1 tag)
    --tl <album>    audio/song album (max 30 chars for version 1 tag)
    --ty <year>     audio/song year of issue (1 to 9999)
    --tc <comment>  user-defined text (max 30 chars for v1 tag, 28 for v1.1)
    --tn <track>    audio/song track number (1 to 99, creates v1.1 tag)
    --tg <genre>    audio/song genre (name or number in list)
    --add-id3v2     force addition of version 2 tag
    --id3v1-only    add only a version 1 tag
    --id3v2-only    add only a version 2 tag
    --space-id3v1   pad version 1 tag with spaces instead of nulls
    --pad-id3v2     pad version 2 tag with extra 128 bytes
    --genre-list    print alphabetically sorted ID3 genre list and exit

    Note: A version 2 tag will NOT be added unless one of the input fields
    won't fit in a version 1 tag (e.g. the title string is longer than 30
    characters), or the `--add-id3v2' or `--id3v2-only' options are used.
