TRACKCMP(1) Compare Audio Tracks TRACKCMP(1)

trackcmp - compares one or more audio tracks for equivalence

trackcmp [OPTIONS] <track 1> <track 2>

trackcmp takes two audio tracks and compares their PCM data. If they are exactly the same, it prints no output and returns 0. If not, a message is displayed and 1 is returned. trackcmp may also take two directories as arguments. In that case, any audio files in both directories are compared as per a single file. Track and album numbers are used to determine which file should be compared to which.
