NAME
     dv2sub - extract info or subtitles from DV stream

SYNOPSIS
     dv2sub {-i | -s} [dv-file]

     dv2sub --subtitles-out sub-file [dv-file]

DESCRIPTION
     Utility  dv2sub  reads raw DV stream from file argument dv-file or standard
     input if absent. It can generate a parametr log about every input DV  frame
     or create MicroDVD subtitles with the recording date & time.

     Memory  mapped  I/O is used for seekable input when available. It is faster
     than sequential access.

     dv2sub    uses    GPL     codec	 for	 DV	video	  LibDV,     see
     http://libdv.sourceforge.net/.

OPTIONS
     -i, --info
	Generate  a simple information about every input DV frame. Reported are:
	frame number (counting from 0), video norm PAL/NTSC, aspect ratio normal
	(4:3) or wide (16:9), interlaced or progressive material, number of  au-
	dio  channels,	audio sampling frequency, number of audio samples, time-
	stamp, recording date & time.

     --ssyb-dump
	Dump SSYB packets in hexadecimal form. (implies -i)

     --vaux-dump
	Dump VAUX packets in hexadecimal form. (implies -i)

     --info-out info-file
	Generate info (like with option -i, --info) and write output  into  file
	info-file.

     -s, --subtitles
	Generate MicroDVD subtitles with the recording date & time.

     --subtitles-out sub-file
	Generate  subtitles  (like  -s,  --subtitles) and write output into file
	sub-file.

     -f, --time-format fmt
	Use the format specification fmt by  strftime()  to  output  a	subtitle
	line. The default format value is `%F|%T'.

     -b, --boundary time
	Don't  output  subtitles with time above a boundary. The option argument
	syntax is YYYY[-mm[-dd [HH:MM[:SS]]]]. Default values for missing  parts
	are the minimal ones. E.g.  2007 sets boundary to 2007-01-01 00:00:00.

	Suppose you recorded a video. You grabbed video into a computer and edit
	it  with  non-linear  editor like kino latter. Video transitions between
	scenes have date and time set to time of editing. You can use  this  op-
	tion to filter out date and time subtitles of edited parts.

     -n, --max-frames num
	Don't process more than num frames.

     -d, --date1
	Output one line with the recording date & time from the 3rd frame.

     --no-mmap
	Don't use mmap().

     -p, --pass-through
	Pass  an  input  DV stream to stdout (implies --no-mmap). This option is
	usable mainly if you need to extract subtitles and encode the DV in  one
	pass. You can avoid reading huge DV file twice by passing stdout through
	pipe to an encoder (ffmpeg, mpeg2enc,...).

     -h, --help
	Output a brief help message.

     -V, --version
	Output a version number.
