SYNOPSIS

opusdec [ -hV ] [ --rate Hz ] [ --gain dB ] [ --no-dither ] [ --float ] [ --force-wav ] [ --packet-loss pct ] [ --save-range file ] input.opus [ output.wav ]

DESCRIPTION

opusdec decodes Opus files into PCM Wave (uncompressed) files.

If the input file is specified as - , then opusdec will read from stdin. Likewise, an output filename of - will cause output to be to stdout.

If no output is specified opusdec will attempt to play the audio in realtime if it supports audio playback on your system.

OPTIONS

-h, --help

Print help message

-V, --version

Display version information

--quiet

Suppresses program output

--rate

Force decoding at sampling rate n Hz

--gain

Adjust the output volume n dB, negative values make the signal quieter.

--no-dither

Do not dither 16-bit output

--float

32-bit floating-point files instead of 16-bit files

--force-wav

Force including a wav header on output (e.g. for non-wav extensions and stdout)

--packet-loss

Simulate n % random Opus packet loss

--save-range

Saves check values for every frame to a file

EXAMPLES

Decode a file input.opus to output.wav

opusdec input.opus output.wav

Play a file input.opus and force output at 48000 regardless of the original sampling rate
(48kHz output may be faster, due to avoiding resampling and some sound hardware produces higher quality output when run at 48kHz)

opusdec --rate 48000 input.opus

Re-encode a high bitrate Opus file to a lower rate

opusdec --force-wav input.opus - | opusenc --bitrate 64 - output.opus
