NAME

       mp3cut - cut and assemble MP3 files

SYNOPSIS

       mp3cut  [  -o  outputfile  ]  [  -T  title  ]  [  -A  artist  ]  [  -N  album-name  ] [ -t
       [hh:]mm:ss[+ms]-[hh:]mm:ss[+ms] ] mp3file [[ -t ...  ] mp3file1 ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The mp3cut utility cuts and assembles MP3 files according to the time specifications given
       on  the  command  line.  The  mp3 output is written to the outputfile. If no outputfile is
       given on the command-line, the name for the outputfile is created from  the  name  of  the
       first  mp3  file  by adding output.mp3 at the end. The -t flag specifies which part of the
       mp3 file following it will be extracted.

OPTIONS

       -o outputfile
              Specify where the output is to be written.

       -T title
              Specify the title ID3 tag for the output file.

       -A artist
              Specify the artist ID3 tag for the output file.

       -N album-name
              Specify the album name ID3 tag for the output file.

       -t [hh:]mm:ss[+ms]-[hh:]mm:ss[+ms]
              Specify which part of the following mp3file will be included in the output file.

                    hh  = hours
                    mm  = minutes
                    ss  = seconds
                    ms  = milliseconds

              If the starting time is omitted, 00:00:00+00 is  used  as  starting  time.  If  the
              ending time is omitted, the end of the MP3 file is used as ending time.

EXAMPLES

       mp3cut -o output.mp3 -t 23:42+500-01:23:42+750 input.mp3

              minutes, 42 seconds and 750 milliseconds from input.mp3 and  write  the  output  to
              output.mp3.

       mp3cut -t 00:01-00:02 input1.mp3 -t -15:23 input2.mp3 -t 9:87+500- input3.mp3
