   This  manpage  describes  the  program  implementation  of pitchplay as

   http://alioth.debian.org/projects/debburn/ for details. It is a spinoff
   from the original program distributed by the cdrtools project. However,

   caused  by it. Do not try to get support for this program by contacting
   the original authors.
