DESCRIPTION

vorbiscomment reads, modifies, and appends Ogg Vorbis audio file metadata tags.

Specify a new tag on the command line. Each tag is given as a single string. The part before the '=' is treated as the tag name and the part after as the value.

-w

Replace comments with the new set given either on the command line with -t or from a file with -c.

EXAMPLES

To just see what comment tags are in a file:

    vorbiscomment -l file.ogg

To edit those comments:

    vorbiscomment -l file.ogg > file.txt
    [edit the comments in file.txt to your statisfaction]
    vorbiscomment -w -c file.txt file.ogg newfile.ogg

To simply add a comment:

    vorbiscomment -a -t 'ARTIST=No One You Know' file.ogg newfile.ogg
