NAME
       faad — Process an Advanced Audio Codec stream

SYNOPSIS
       faad  [options]	[-w  |	-o  <output_filename>  | -a <output_filename>]
       input_filename

DESCRIPTION
       This utility provides a command line interface to libfaad2.  This  pro‐
       gram  reads  in MPEG‐4 AAC files, processes, and outputs them in either
       Microsoft WAV, MPEG‐4 AAC ADTS, or standard PCM formats.

OPTIONS
       -a <filename>, --adtsout <filename>
	      Sets the processing to output to the specified  file  in	MPEG‐4
	      AAC ADTS format

       -b <number>, --bits <number>
	      Set  the output (individual) sample format. The number takes one
	      of the following values:
		     1: 16‐bit PCM data (default).
		     2: 24‐bit PCM data.
		     3: 32‐bit PCM data.
		     4: 32‐bit floatingint data.
		     5: 64‐bit floatingint data.

       -d , --downmix
	      Set the processing to downsample from 5.1	 (surround  sound  and
	      bass) channels to 2 channels (stereo).

       -f <number>, --format <number>
	      Set  the output file format. The number takes one of the follow‐
	      ing values:
		     1: Microsoft WAV format (default).
		     2: Raw PCM data.

       -g     Set the processing to not perform gapless decoding.

       -h , --help
	      Shows a usage summary.

       -i , --info
	      Shows information about the about the input file.

       -l <number>, --objecttype <number>
	      Sets the MPEG    rofile and object type for  the	processing  to
	      use. The number takes one of the following values:
		     1: Main object type.
		     2: Low Complexity (LC) object type (default).
		     4: Long Term Prediction (LTP) object type.
		     23: Low Delay (LD) object type.

       -o <filename>, --outfile <number>
	      Sets the filename for processing output.

       -q , --quiet
	      Quiet - Suppresses status messages during processing.

       -t , --oldformat
	      Sets  the	 processing to use the old MPEG‐4 AAC ADTS format when
	      outputting in said format.

       -w , --stdio
	      Sets the processing output to be sent to the standard out.
