The optional first #.# is the track and index point at

of the stream. The optional second #.# is the track

and index point at which decoding will end; the default

is the end of the stream. If the seekpoint does not
|
|
exist, the closest one before it (for the start point)
|
|
or after it (for the end point) will be used. If those
|
|
don't exist, the start of the stream (for the start
|
|
point) or end of the stream (for the end point) will be
|
|
used. The cuepoints are merely translated into sample

numbers then used as --skip and --until.</para>

Include a point or points in a SEEKTABLE. 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). You may use
|
|
many -S options; the resulting SEEKTABLE will be the
|
|
unique-ified union of all such values. With no -S
|
|
options, flac defaults to '-S 10s'. Use --no-seektable
|
|
for no SEEKTABLE. Note: '-S #x' and '-S #s' will not
|
|
work if the encoder can't determine the input size before
|
|
starting. Note: if you use '-S #' and # is >=
|
|
samples in the input, there will be either no seek
|
|
point entered (if the input size is determinable
|
|
before encoding starts) or a placeholder point (if
|
|
input size is not determinable).</para>

<para>Tell the encoder to write a PADDING metadata
|
|
block of the given length (in bytes) after the

|
STREAMINFO block. This is useful if you plan to
|
|
tag the file later with an APPLICATION block;
|
|
instead of having to rewrite the entire file later
|
|
just to insert your block, you can write directly
|
|
over the PADDING block. Note that the total length
|
|
of the PADDING block will be 4 bytes longer than
|
|
the length given because of the 4 metadata block
|
|
header bytes. You can force no PADDING block at
|
|
all to be written with --no-padding. The encoder
|
|
writes a PADDING block of 4096 bytes by default.
