@chapter Synopsis
The generic syntax is:
@example
@c man begin SYNOPSIS
avprobe [options] [@file{input_file}]
@c man end
@end example
@chapter Description
@c man begin DESCRIPTION
avprobe gathers information from multimedia streams and prints it in
human- and machine-readable fashion.
For example it can be used to check the format of the container used
by a multimedia stream and the format and type of each media stream
contained in it.
If a filename is specified in input, avprobe will try to open and
probe the file content. If the file cannot be opened or recognized as
a multimedia file, a positive exit code is returned.
avprobe may be employed both as a standalone application or in
combination with a textual filter, which may perform more
sophisticated processing, e.g. statistical processing or plotting.
Options are used to list some of the formats supported by avprobe or
for specifying which information to display, and for setting how
avprobe will show it.
avprobe output is designed to be easily parsable by any INI or JSON
parsers.
