+.SH COPYRIGHT
+\fBtcscan\fP is Copyright (C) by Thomas Oestreich.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B tcscan
+is part of and usually called by \fBtranscode\fP.
+.br
+However, it can also be used independently.
+.br
+\fBtcscan\fP reads source (from stdin if not explicitely defined) and
+prints on the standard output.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP "\fB-i \fIname\fP"
+Specify input source. If ommited, \fIstdin\fP is assumed.
+.br
+You can specify a file, directory, device, mountpoint or host address
+as input source. \fBtcscan\fP usually handles the different types
+correctly.
+.IP "\fB-d\fP \fIlevel\fP"
+With this option you can specify a bitmask to enable different levels
+of verbosity (if supported). You can combine several levels by adding the
+corresponding values:
+
+QUIET 0
+
+INFO 1
+
+DEBUG 2
+
+STATS 4
+
+WATCH 8
+
+FLIST 16
+
+VIDCORE 32
+
+SYNC 64
+
+COUNTER 128
+
+PRIVATE 256
+.IP "\fB-v\fP"
+Print version information and exit.
+.SH NOTES
+\fBtcscan\fP is a front end for scaning various source types and is used in \fBtranscode\fP's import modules.
+\fBtcscan\fP does a complete scan of the source to gather information.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+The command
+.B tcscan -i foo.avi
+prints header information about the AVI-file itself and lists details on the video and audio content, e.g., keyframes, chunk structure.
+
+The command
+.B cat audio.pcm | tcscan -x pcm -e 48000,16,2
+simply determines the playtime lenghth of the raw audio stream.
+
+The command
+.B tcscan -x mp3 -i input.mp3
+will print the number of chunks in the MP3 file and the average bitrate.
