Audioextract ============ Extract audio files that are embedded within other files. Setup ----- make make install PREFIX=/usr Usage ----- audioextract [option...] [ ...] ### Examples Extract .wav, .aif and .ogg (might actually be .flac, .opus or .ogm) files from the file `data.bin` and store them in the `~/Music` directory. audioextract -f wave,ogg -o ~/Music data.bin This will then write files like such into `~/Music`: data.bin_00000000.ogg data.bin_00FFB2E3.wav data.bin_01F3CD45.aif The hexadecimal number in the written file names give the offset where in the data file the audio file was found. Extract .mp3, .mp2 and .mp1 files (with or without ID3v2 tags). The `mpg123` option yields a lot of false positives because there is no nice way to unambigiously detect MPEG files. These false positives are however usually very small, so using the `--min-size` one can hopefully extract only real MPEG files. audioextract -f id3v2,mpg123 --min-size 100k -o ~/Music data.bin ### Options -h, --help Print this help message. -q, --quiet Do not print status messages. -f, --formats=FORMATS Comma separated list of formats (file magics) to extract. Supported formats: all all supported formats default the default set of formats (AIFF, ASF, BINK, ID3v2, IT, MIDI, MP4, Ogg, RIFF, S3M) aiff big-endian (Apple) wave files asf Advanced Systems Format files (also WMA and WMV) bink BINK files id3v2 MPEG layer 1/2/3 files with ID3v2 tags it ImpulseTracker files midi MIDI files mod FastTracker files mpg123 MPEG layer 1/2/3 files (MP1, MP2, MP3) mp4 MP4 files (M4A, M4V, 3GPP etc.) ogg Ogg files (Vorbis, FLAC, Opus, Theora, etc.) riff Resource Interchange File Format files (ANI, AVI, MMM, PAL, RDI, RMI, WAV) s3m ScreamTracker III files tracker all tracker files (MOD, S3M, IT) WARNING: Because MP1/2/3 files do not have a nice file magic, using the 'mpg123' format may cause *a lot* of false positives. Nowadays MP3 files usually have an ID3v2 tag at the start, so using the 'id3v2' format is the better option anyway. The detection accuracy of MOD files is not much better and thus they are also per default disabled. NOTE: When using only the 'mpg123' format but not 'id3v2' any ID3v2 tag will be stripped. ID3v1 tags will still be kept. If '-' is written before a format name the format will be removed from the set of formats to extract. E.g. extract everything except tracker files: audioextract --formats=all,-tracker data.bin -o, --output=DIR Directory where extracted files should be written. (default: ".") -m, --min-size=SIZE Minumum size of extracted files (skip smaller). (default: 0) -x, --max-size=SIZE Maximum size of extracted files (skip larger). (default: max. possible size_t value) The last character of SIZE may be one of the following: B (or none) for bytes k for Kilobytes (units of 1024 bytes) M for Megabytes (units of 1024 Kilobytes) G for Gigabytes (units of 1024 Megabytes) T for Terabytes (units of 1024 Gigabytes)
