NAME

     esmerge — Merge the contents of two ES to make a TS

SYNOPSIS

     esmerge [-err stdout] [-err stderr] [-verbose | -v] [-quiet | -q] [-x] [-h264 | -avs]
             [-vidrate video_hz] [-rate audio_hz | -cd | -dat]
             [-adts | -l2 | -mp2adts | -mp4adts | -ac3] [-patpmtfreq pat_freq] video_file
             audio_file out_file

DESCRIPTION

     Merge the contents of two Elementary Stream (ES) files, one containing video data, and the
     other audio, to produce an output file containing Transport Stream (TS).

   Files
     video_file
             is the ES file containing video.

     audio_file
             is the ES file containing audio.

     out_file
             is the resultant TS file.

   Switches
     -err stdout
             Write error messages to standard output (the default)

     -err stderr
             Write error messages to standard error (Unix traditional)

     -stdin  Input from standard input, instead of a file

     -v, -verbose
             Output extra information about each audio/video frame

     -q, -quiet
             Only output error messages

     -x      Output diagnostic information.

     -h264   The video stream is H.264 (the default)

     -avs    The video stream is AVS

     -vidrate video_hz
             Video frame rate in Hz - defaults to 25Hz.

     -rate audio_hz
             Audio sample rate in Hertz - defaults to 44100, i.e., 44.1KHz.

     -cd     Equivalent to -rate 44100 (CD rate), the default.

     -dat    Equivalent to -rate 48000 (DAT rate).

     -adts   The audio stream is ADTS (the default)

     -l2     The audio stream is MPEG layer 2 audio

     -mp2adts
             The audio stream is MPEG-2 style ADTS regardless of ID bit

     -mp4adts
             The audio stream is MPEG-4 style ADTS regardless of ID bit

     -ac3    The audio stream is Dolby AC-3 in ATSC

     -patpmtfreq pat_freq
             PAT and PMT will be inserted every pat_freq video frames.  By default, pat_freq = 0
             and PAT/PMT are inserted only at the start of the output stream.

BUGS

     For the moment, the video input must be H.264 or AVS, and the audio input ADTS, AC-3 ATSC or
     MPEG layer 2. Also, the audio is assumed to have a constant number of samples per frame.
