NAME

   kateenc - create Kate streams from text input

SYNOPSIS

   kateenc [-hVM] [-o outfile] [-l language] [-c category] [-s serial] [-C
   tag=value] [-R threshold] [-K threshold] -t filetype [ infile ]

DESCRIPTION

   kateenc creates Kate streams from input files  (SubRip  SRT  subtitles,
   LRC  lyrics, and libkate's custom description language).  When saved to
   an Ogg stream (the default behavior), a Kate stream may then be  merged
   with other Ogg streams (eg, a Theora video) using the oggz tools.

OPTIONS

   -h     Show command line help.

   -V     Show version information.

   -M     Allow simple HTML-like markup in SRT files. If this parameter is
          used, strings such as "<i>" will be interpreted to mean italics,
          rather  than appear as such. Note that various players interpret
          a slightly different set of HTML tags, and some do not.

   -o outfile
          Write the output Kate stream to the given file name  (writes  to
          stdout if not specified).

   -l language
          Sets  the  language  for  the  stream  (default  is the language
          specified in the input, or none).

   -c category
          Sets the category  for  the  stream  (default  is  the  category
          specified in the input, or none).

   -s serial
          Sets  the  serial  number  for  the output Kate stream (does not
          apply to raw streams).

   -C tag=value
          Adds a comment to  encode  into  the  output  Kate  stream.  The
          comment  must  be  of  the  form  tag=value, and comply with the
          Vorbis comment rules (eg, tag is composed of a particular subset
          of  ASCII  characters,  and value is valid UTF-8). Note that you
          might have to escape or quote the comment for it to be seen as a
          single command line parameter.

   -t filetype
          Specifies the type of the input (srt, lrc, kate)

   -R threshold
          Use repeat packets, with the given threshold (in seconds).  Data
          packets will be  repeated  at  intervals  of  roughly  threshold
          seconds, while active.

   -K threshold
          Use  keepalive  packets,  with the given threshold (in seconds).
          Keepalive packets will be emitted when no other packet has  been
          emitted for roughly threshold seconds.

EXAMPLES

   Create a Kate stream for Welsh subtitles from a SubRip file:

       kateenc -t srt -l cy -c SUB -o output.ogg input.srt
