+.SH NAME
+esdots \- Analyze the video items contained in an elementary stream
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B esdots
+[\fIswitches\fR] \fI<infile>\fR
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IP
+TS tools version 1.11, esdots built Nov 11 2008 17:15:46
+.IP
+Present the content of an H.264 (MPEG\-4/AVC), H.262 (MPEG\-2) or AVS
+elementary stream as a sequence of characters, representing access
+units/MPEG\-2 items/AVS items.
+(Note that for H.264 it is access units and not frames that are
+represented, and for H.262 it is items and not pictures.)
+.SS "Files:"
+.TP
+<infile>
+is the Elementary Stream file (but see \fB\-stdin\fR below)
+.SS "Switches:"
+.TP
+\fB\-verbose\fR, \fB\-v\fR
+Preface the output with an explanation of the
+characters being used.
+.TP
+\fB\-stdin\fR
+Take input from <stdin>, instead of a named file
+.TP
+\fB\-max\fR <n>, \fB\-m\fR <n>
+Maximum number of entities to read
+.TP
+\fB\-pes\fR, \fB\-ts\fR
+The input file is TS or PS, to be read via the
+PES\->ES reading mechanisms
+.TP
+\fB\-hasheos\fR
+Print a # on finding an EOS (end\-of\-stream) NAL unit
+rather than stopping (only applies to H.264)
+.TP
+\fB\-es\fR
+Report ES units, rather than any 'higher' unit
+(not necessarily suppported for all file types)
+.TP
+\fB\-gop\fR
+Show the duration of each GOP (for MPEG\-2 steams)
+OR the distance between random access points (H.264)
+.TP
+\fB\-fr\fR
+Set the video frame rate (default = 25 fps)
+.SS "Stream type:"
+.IP
+If input is from a file, then the program will look at the start of
+the file to determine if the stream is H.264 or H.262 data. This
+process may occasionally come to the wrong conclusion, in which case
+the user can override the choice using the following switches.
+.IP
+For AVS data, the program will never guess correctly, so the user must
+specify the file type, using \fB\-avs\fR.
+.IP
+If input is from standard input (via \fB\-stdin\fR), then it is not possible
+for the program to make its own decision on the input stream type.
+Instead, it defaults to H.262, and relies on the user indicating if
+this is wrong.
+.TP
+\fB\-h264\fR, \fB\-avc\fR
+Force the program to treat the input as MPEG\-4/AVC.
+.TP
+\fB\-h262\fR
+Force the program to treat the input as MPEG\-2.
+.TP
+\fB\-avs\fR
+Force the program to treat the input as AVS.
