       esreport - Report the content of a video ES

SYNOPSIS

       esreport [switches] <infile>

DESCRIPTION

              TS tools version 1.11, esreport built Nov 11 2008 17:15:46

              Report on the content of an elementary stream containing H.264 (MPEG-4/AVC), H.262 (MPEG-2) or AVS
              video data.

   Files:
       <infile>
              is the Elementary Stream file (but see -stdin below)

   What to report:
              The default is to report on H.262 items, AVS frames or H.264 NAL units.  Other choices are:

       -frames
              Report by frames. The default for AVS.

       -findfields
              Report on any fields in the data. Ignored for AVS.

       -afd   Report (just) on AFD changes in H.262. Ignored for the other types of file.

       -es    Report on ES units.

              Reporting on frames may be modified by:

       -framesize
              Report on the sizes of frames (mean, etc.).

       -frametype
              Report on the numbers of different type of frame.

              (in fact, both of these imply -frame).

   Other switches:
       -verbose, -v
              For H.262 data, output information about the data in  each  MPEG-2  item.  For  ES  units,  output
              information about the data in each ES unit. Ignored for H.264 data.

       -quiet, -q
              Only output summary information (i.e., the number of entities in the file, statistics, etc.)

       -x     Show details of each NAL unit as it is read.

       -stdin Take input from <stdin>, instead of a named file

       -max <n>, -m <n>
              Maximum number of NAL units/MPEG-2 items/AVS frames/ES units to read. If -frames, then the program
              will stop after that many frames. If reading 'frames', MPEG-2 and AVS  will  also  count  sequence
              headers and sequence end.

       -pes, -ts
              The input file is TS or PS, to be read via the PES->ES reading mechanisms

       -pesreport
              Report on PES headers. Implies -pes and -q.

   Stream type:
              If  input  is from a file, then the program will look at the start of the file to determine if the
              stream is H.264, H.262 or AVS data. This process may occasionally come to the wrong conclusion, in
              which case the user can override the choice using the following switches.

              If  input is from standard input (via -stdin), then it is not possible for the program to make its
              own decision on the input stream type.  Instead, it defaults to H.262,  and  relies  on  the  user
              indicating if this is wrong.

       -h264, -avc
              Force the program to treat the input as MPEG-4/AVC.

       -h262  Force the program to treat the input as MPEG-2.

       -avs   Force the program to treat the input as AVS.
