+.SH NAME
+metaflac \- program to list, add, remove, or edit metadata in one or more FLAC files.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+\fBmetaflac\fR [ \fB\fIoptions\fB\fR ] [ \fB\fIoperations\fB\fR ] \fB\fIFLACfile\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+Use \fBmetaflac\fR to list, add, remove, or edit
+metadata in one or more FLAC files. You may perform one major operation,
+or many shorthand operations at a time.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.TP
+\fB--preserve-modtime\fR
+Preserve the original modification time in spite of edits.
+.TP
+\fB--with-filename\fR
+Prefix each output line with the FLAC file name (the default if
+more than one FLAC file is specified).
+.TP
+\fB--no-filename\fR
+Do not prefix each output line with the FLAC file name (the default
+if only one FLAC file is specified).
+.TP
+\fB--no-utf8-convert\fR
+Do not convert tags from UTF-8 to local charset, or vice versa. This is
+useful for scripts, and setting tags in situations where the locale is wrong.
+.TP
+\fB--dont-use-padding\fR
+By default metaflac tries to use padding where possible to avoid
+rewriting the entire file if the metadata size changes. Use this
+option to tell metaflac to not take advantage of padding this way.
+.SH "SHORTHAND OPERATIONS"
+.TP
+\fB--show-md5sum\fR
+Show the MD5 signature from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-min-blocksize\fR
+Show the minimum block size from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-max-blocksize\fR
+Show the maximum block size from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-min-framesize\fR
+Show the minimum frame size from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-max-framesize\fR
+Show the maximum frame size from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-sample-rate\fR
+Show the sample rate from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-channels\fR
+Show the number of channels from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-bps\fR
+Show the # of bits per sample from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-total-samples\fR
+Show the total # of samples from the STREAMINFO block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-vendor-tag\fR
+Show the vendor string from the VORBIS_COMMENT block.
+.TP
+\fB--show-tag=name\fR
+Show all tags where the the field name matches 'name'.
+.TP
+\fB--remove-tag=name\fR
+Remove all tags whose field name is 'name'.
+.TP
+\fB--remove-first-tag=name\fR
+Remove first tag whose field name is 'name'.
+.TP
+\fB--remove-all-tags\fR
+Remove all tags, leaving only the vendor string.
+.TP
+\fB--set-tag=field\fR
+Add a tag. The field must comply with the
+Vorbis comment spec, of the form "NAME=VALUE". If there is
+currently no tag block, one will be created.
+.TP
+\fB--set-tag-from-file=field\fR
+Like --set-tag, except the VALUE is a filename whose
+contents will be read verbatim to set the tag value.
+Unless --no-utf8-convert is specified, the contents will be
+converted to UTF-8 from the local charset. This can be used
+to store a cuesheet in a tag (e.g.
+--set-tag-from-file="CUESHEET=image.cue"). Do not try to
+store binary data in tag fields! Use APPLICATION blocks for
+that.
+.TP
+\fB--import-tags-from=file\fR
+Import tags from a file. Use '-' for stdin. Each
+line should be of the form NAME=VALUE. Multi-line comments
+are currently not supported. Specify --remove-all-tags and/or
+--no-utf8-convert before --import-tags-from if necessary. If
+FILE is '-' (stdin), only one FLAC file may be specified.
+.TP
+\fB--export-tags-to=file\fR
+Export tags to a file. Use '-' for stdout. Each
+line will be of the form NAME=VALUE. Specify
+--no-utf8-convert if necessary.
+.TP
+\fB--import-cuesheet-from=file\fR
+Import a cuesheet from a file. Use '-' for stdin. Only one
+FLAC file may be specified. A seekpoint will be added for each
+index point in the cuesheet to the SEEKTABLE unless
+--no-cued-seekpoints is specified.
+.TP
+\fB--export-cuesheet-to=file\fR
+Export CUESHEET block to a cuesheet file, suitable for use by
+CD authoring software. Use '-' for stdout. Only one FLAC file
+may be specified on the command line.
+.TP
+\fB--import-picture-from={\fIFILENAME\fB|\fISPECIFICATION\fB}\fR
+Import a picture and store it in a PICTURE metadata block. More than one --import-picture-from command can be specified. Either a filename for the picture file or a more complete specification form can be used. The SPECIFICATION is a string whose parts are separated by | (pipe) characters. Some parts may be left empty to invoke default values. FILENAME is just shorthand for "||||FILENAME". The format of SPECIFICATION is
+
+[TYPE]|[MIME-TYPE]|[DESCRIPTION]|[WIDTHxHEIGHTxDEPTH[/COLORS]]|FILE
+
+TYPE is optional; it is a number from one of:
+
+0: Other
+
+1: 32x32 pixels 'file icon' (PNG only)
+
+2: Other file icon
+
+3: Cover (front)
+
+4: Cover (back)
+
+5: Leaflet page
+
+6: Media (e.g. label side of CD)
+
+7: Lead artist/lead performer/soloist
+
+8: Artist/performer
+
+9: Conductor
+
+10: Band/Orchestra
+
+11: Composer
+
+12: Lyricist/text writer
+
+13: Recording Location
+
+14: During recording
+
+15: During performance
+
+16: Movie/video screen capture
+
+17: A bright coloured fish
+
+18: Illustration
+
+19: Band/artist logotype
+
+20: Publisher/Studio logotype
+
+The default is 3 (front cover). There may only be one picture each of type 1 and 2 in a file.
+
+MIME-TYPE is optional; if left blank, it will be detected from the file. For best compatibility with players, use pictures with MIME type image/jpeg or image/png. The MIME type can also be --> to mean that FILE is actually a URL to an image, though this use is discouraged.
+
+DESCRIPTION is optional; the default is an empty string.
+
+The next part specfies the resolution and color information. If the MIME-TYPE is image/jpeg, image/png, or image/gif, you can usually leave this empty and they can be detected from the file. Otherwise, you must specify the width in pixels, height in pixels, and color depth in bits-per-pixel. If the image has indexed colors you should also specify the number of colors used. When manually specified, it is not checked against the file for accuracy.
+
+FILE is the path to the picture file to be imported, or the URL if MIME type is -->
+
+For example, "|image/jpeg|||../cover.jpg" will embed the JPEG file at ../cover.jpg, defaulting to type 3 (front cover) and an empty description. The resolution and color info will be retrieved from the file itself.
+
+The specification "4|-->|CD|320x300x24/173|http://blah.blah/backcover.tiff" will embed the given URL, with type 4 (back cover), description "CD", and a manually specified resolution of 320x300, 24 bits-per-pixel, and 173 colors. The file at the URL will not be fetched; the URL itself is stored in the PICTURE metadata block.
+.TP
+\fB--export-picture-to=file\fR
+Export PICTURE block to a file. Use '-' for stdout. Only one FLAC file may be specified on the command line. The first PICTURE block will be exported unless --export-picture-to is preceded by a --block-number=# option to specify the exact metadata block to extract. Note that the block number is the one shown by --list.
+.TP
+\fB--add-replay-gain\fR
+Calculates the title and album gains/peaks of the given FLAC
+files as if all the files were part of one album, then stores
+them as FLAC tags. The tags are the same as
+those used by vorbisgain. Existing ReplayGain tags will be
+replaced. If only one FLAC file is given, the album and title
+gains will be the same. Since this operation requires two
+passes, it is always executed last, after all other operations
+have been completed and written to disk. All FLAC files
+specified must have the same resolution, sample rate, and
+number of channels. The sample rate must be one of 8, 11.025,
+12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1, or 48 kHz.
+.TP
+\fB--remove-replay-gain\fR
+Removes the ReplayGain tags.
+.TP
+\fB--add-seekpoint={\fI#\fB|\fIX\fB|\fI#x\fB|\fI#s\fB}\fR
+Add seek points to a SEEKTABLE block. Using #, a seek point at
+that sample number is added. Using X, a placeholder point is
+added at the end of a the table. Using #x, # evenly spaced seek
+points will be added, the first being at sample 0. Using #s, a
+seekpoint will be added every # seconds (# does not have to be a
+whole number; it can be, for example, 9.5, meaning a seekpoint
+every 9.5 seconds). If no SEEKTABLE block exists, one will be
+created. If one already exists, points will be added to the
+existing table, and any duplicates will be turned into placeholder
+points. You may use many --add-seekpoint options; the resulting
+SEEKTABLE will be the unique-ified union of all such values.
+Example: --add-seekpoint=100x --add-seekpoint=3.5s will add 100
+evenly spaced seekpoints and a seekpoint every 3.5 seconds.
+.TP
+\fB--add-padding=length\fR
+Add a padding block of the given length (in bytes). The overall
+length of the new block will be 4 + length; the extra 4 bytes is
+for the metadata block header.
+.SH "MAJOR OPERATIONS"
+.TP
+\fB--list\fR
+List the contents of one or more metadata blocks to stdout. By
+default, all metadata blocks are listed in text format. Use the
+following options to change this behavior:
+.RS
+.TP
+\fB--block-number=#[,#[...]]\fR
+An optional comma-separated list of block numbers to display.
+The first block, the STREAMINFO block, is block 0.
+.TP
+\fB--block-type=type[,type[...]]\fR
+.TP
+\fB--except-block-type=type[,type[...]]\fR
+An optional comma-separated list of block types to be included
+or ignored with this option. Use only one of --block-type or
+--except-block-type. The valid block types are: STREAMINFO,
+PADDING, APPLICATION, SEEKTABLE, VORBIS_COMMENT. You may
+narrow down the types of APPLICATION blocks displayed as
+follows:
+
+APPLICATION:abcd The APPLICATION block(s) whose textual repre-
+sentation of the 4-byte ID is "abcd"
+APPLICATION:0xXXXXXXXX The APPLICATION block(s) whose hexadecimal big-
+endian representation of the 4-byte ID is
+"0xXXXXXXXX". For the example "abcd" above the
+hexadecimal equivalalent is 0x61626364
+.sp
+.RS
+.B "Note:"
+if both --block-number and --[except-]block-type are
+specified, the result is the logical AND of both
+arguments.
+.RE
+.TP
+\fB--application-data-format=hexdump|text\fR
+If the application block you are displaying contains binary
+data but your --data-format=text, you can display a hex dump
+of the application data contents instead using
+--application-data-format=hexdump.
+.RE
+.TP
+\fB--remove\fR
+Remove one or more metadata blocks from the metadata. Unless
+--dont-use-padding is specified, the blocks will be replaced with
+padding. You may not remove the STREAMINFO block.
+.RS
+.TP
+\fB--block-number=#[,#[...]]\fR
+.TP
+\fB--block-type=type[,type[...]]\fR
+.TP
+\fB--except-block-type=type[,type[...]]\fR
+See --list above for usage.
+.sp
+.RS
+.B "Note:"
+if both --block-number and --[except-]block-type are
+specified, the result is the logical AND of both arguments.
+.RE
+.RE
+.TP
+\fB--remove-all\fR
+Remove all metadata blocks (except the STREAMINFO block) from the
+metadata. Unless --dont-use-padding is specified, the blocks will
+be replaced with padding.
+.TP
+\fB--merge-padding\fR
+Merge adjacent PADDING blocks into single blocks.
+.TP
+\fB--sort-padding\fR
+Move all PADDING blocks to the end of the metadata and merge them
+into a single block.
