.SH SYNOPSIS
.B tsdumper2 -n <name> -i <input> \fI..other options..\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
tsdumper2 reads incoming mpeg transport stream over UDP/RTP and then
records it to disk. The files names are generated based on preconfigured
time interval.
.SH OPTIONS
.PP
.TP
\fB\-n\fR, \fB\-\-prefix\fR <name>
Set file name prefix. The output file name is generated using the
following pattern: PREFIX-YYYYMMDD_hhmmss_UNIXTS.ts
.TP
\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-seconds\fR <seconds>
How much seconds should each individual file be long. The default
interval is 60 seconds.
.TP
\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-output\-dir\fR <dir>
Set the directory into which the files will be written. The default
directory is . (current directory).
.TP
\fB\-D\fR, \fB\-\-create\-dirs\fR
Save output files into directories named YYYY/MM/DD/hh. The output
file is created in the top directory and then it is hard linked into
the output directory. In the top directory you'll see the file that
is currently written.

.PP
.TP
\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-input\fR <source>

To get a quick start here are some example command lines.
.nf
   # Read multicast stream from 239.78.78.78:5000 and save it in
   # files with test- prefix
   tsdumper2 --input udp://239.78.78.78:5000/ --prefix test

   # Same as above but create directories YYYY/MM/DD/HH and put
   # files into the directory.
   tsdumper2 --input udp://239.78.78.78:5000/ --prefix test --create-dirs

   # Same as above but create directories YYYY/MM/DD/HH and put
   # files into the directory and create new file each 10 seconds.
   tsdumper2 --input udp://239.78.78.78:5000/ --prefix test --create-dirs --seconds 10
