SYNOPSIS

   speexenc [options] input_file output_file

DESCRIPTION

   Encodes input_file using Speex. It can read the WAV or raw files.

   input_file can be:
   filename.wav
          wav file

   filename.*
          Raw PCM file (any extension other than .wav)

   -      stdin

   output_file can be:
   filename.spx
          Speex file

   -      stdout

OPTIONS

   -n, --narrowband
          Narrowband (8 kHz) input file

   -w, --wideband
          Wideband (16 kHz) input file

   -u, --ultra-wideband "Ultra-wideband" (32 kHz) input file

   --quality n
          Encoding quality (0-10), default 8

   --bitrate n
          Encoding bit-rate (use bit-rate n or lower)

   --vbr  Enable variable bit-rate (VBR)

   --abr rate
          Enable average bit-rate (ABR) at rate bps

   --vad  Enable voice activity detection (VAD)

   --dtx  Enable file-based discontinuous transmission (DTX)

   --comp n
          Set encoding complexity (0-10), default 3

   --nframes n
          Number of frames per Ogg packet (1-10), default 1

   --comment
          Add  the  given  string  as  an  extra comment. This may be used
          multiple times

   --author

   -h, --help
          This help

   -v, --version
          Version information

   -V     Verbose mode (show bit-rate)

   Raw input options:
   --rate n
          Sampling rate for raw input

   --stereo
          Consider raw input as stereo

   --le   Raw input is little-endian

   --be   Raw input is big-endian

   --8bit Raw input is 8-bit unsigned

   --16bit
