Options: -h Shows this help screen. -i Shows info about the input file. -a X Write MPEG-4 AAC ADTS output file. -t Assume old ADTS format. -o X Set output filename. -f X Set output format. Valid values for X are: 1: Microsoft WAV format (default). 2: RAW PCM data. -b X Set output sample format. Valid values for X are: 1: 16 bit PCM data (default). 2: 24 bit PCM data. 3: 32 bit PCM data. 4: 32 bit floating point data. 5: 64 bit floating point data. -s X Force the samplerate to X (for RAW files). -l X Set object type. Supported object types: 1: Main object type. 2: LC (Low Complexity) object type. 4: LTP (Long Term Prediction) object type. 23: LD (Low Delay) object type. -d Down matrix 5.1 to 2 channels -w Write output to stdio instead of a file. -g Disable gapless decoding. -q Quiet - suppresses status messages. -j X Jump - start output X seconds into track (MP4 files only).
