+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.sp
+mediaextract [\fI\-options\fP] \fIfilename\fP [\fIfilename\fP ...]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+\fBmediaextract\fP extracts known media types such as RIFF, Ogg, etc,
+from various \(aqresource\(aq or \(aqarchive\(aq format files. files. It works
+by looking for \(aqmagic\(aq byte sequences (like the \fBfile(1)\fP command
+does). A typical use case would be extracting resources from a
+game. \fBmediaextract\fP does not support compression (zip/rar/7z/etc), so
+uncompress the file first, if necessary.

+\fI[1]\fP WARNING: Because MP1/2/3 files do not have a nice file magic, using
+the \(aqmpg123\(aq format may cause \fIa lot\fP of false positives. Nowadays
+MP3 files usually have an ID3v2 tag at the start, so using the \(aqid3v2\(aq
+format is the better option anyway.
+.sp
+The detection accuracy of MOD files is not much better and of MPEG TS
+it is even worse and thus the \(aqmpg123\(aq, \(aqmpegts\(aq and \(aqmod\(aq formats are
+per default disabled.
+.sp
+\fI[2]\fP NOTE: When using only the \(aqmpg123\(aq format but not \(aqid3v2\(aq, any ID3v2
+tag will be stripped. ID3v1 tags will still be kept.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.sp
+Extract .wav, .aif and .ogg (might actually be .ogg, .opus or .ogm) files from
+the file \fBdata.bin\fP and store them in the \fB~/Music\fP directory:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.INDENT 3.5
+.sp
+.nf
+.ft C
+mediaextract \-f riff,aiff,ogg \-o ~/Music data.bin
+.ft P
+.fi
+.UNINDENT
+.UNINDENT
+.sp
+This will then write files like such into \fB~/Music\fP:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.INDENT 3.5
+.sp
+.nf
+.ft C
+data.bin_00000000.ogg
+data.bin_00FFB2E3.wav
+data.bin_01F3CD45.aif
+.ft P
+.fi
+.UNINDENT
+.UNINDENT
+.sp
+The hexadecimal number in the written file names gives the offset where the audio
+file was found, within the data file.
+.sp
+Extract .mp3, .mp2 and .mp1 files (with or without ID3v2 tags). The \fBmpg123\fP
+option yields a lot of false positives because there is no nice way to
+unambigiously detect MPEG files. These false positives are however usually very
+small, so using the \fB\-\-min\-size\fP option one can hopefully extract only real MPEG
+files:
+.INDENT 0.0
+.INDENT 3.5
+.sp
+.nf
+.ft C
+mediaextract \-f id3v2,mpg123 \-\-min\-size=100k \-o ~/Music data.bin
