EZSTREAM-FILE.SH(1)	    General Commands Manual	   EZSTREAM-FILE.SH(1)

NAME
       ezstream-file.sh	-- script to stream files from the command line

SYNOPSIS
       ezstream-file.sh	[-hnqVv] [-T cfg_template] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
       The  ezstream-file.sh  script  uses an ezstream configuration file tem-
       plate to	stream a list of files given on	the command line, or via stan-
       dard input.  In other words,  filenames	are  written  to  a  temporary
       playlist,  and  a  template-based  configuration	is generated to	stream
       them.

       The path	to a configuration template must be provided, either by	 using
       the  -T	command	 line  argument,  or the EZSTREAM_TEMPLATE environment
       variable.

       The configuration template must be a valid playlist configuration,  and
       contain the follwing configuration statement:

	     <filename>%FILENAME%</filename>

       If  no  input files are specified, the list of files to be streamed are
       read from standard input.

       Lastly, the EZSTREAM environment	variable allows	to specify  an	alter-
       nate ezstream binary.

   Command line	parameters
       -h      Print a summary of available command line parameters with short
	       descriptions and	exit.

       -n      (Passed	to  ezstream.)	Normalize metadata strings by removing
	       excess whitespaces.

       -q      (Passed to ezstream.)  Be more quiet.  Suppress the output that
	       external	programs send to standard error.

       -T cfg_template
	       Use the configuration in	cfg_template, overriding  the  default
	       set in the EZSTREAM_TEMPLATE environment	variable.

       -V      Print the ezstream-file.sh version number and exit.

       -v      (Passed	 to  ezstream.)	  Produce  more	 verbose  output  from
	       ezstream.  Use twice for	even more verbose output.

FILES
       /usr/local/share/examples/ezstream  Directory containing	 example  con-
					   figuration  files  for various uses
					   of ezstream,	 as  well  as  example
					   playlist and	metadata scripts.
