Package: mimms
Version: 3.2.1-2
Severity: wishlist

I'm not sure if this is even meaningful in the mms: world,
maybe the specifications are always the same, I don't know,
but it might be useful to people like me who aren't too familiar
with mms: and related stream formats.
Any way a --identify/-i switch which would just dump out
the specifics of the stream, similar to ffprobe (which doesn't 
handle mms:), mkvmerge --identify, file  etc.
Perhaps a validate switch, to sample enough of the stream
to verify that it is valid mms:, with appropriate return code.
If this in invariant on valid mms: and related, then the 
--identify could dump out some hard coded info on the format,
otherwise real technical specs of the stream in question.
This was spurred on by a friend who didn't want to capture
the whole stream, but encode and save the audio on the fly direct to mp3.
I was trying to analyze the stream to find out if it was simply a
question of dumping the raw audio to a file or actual encoding.
I ended up   mimms -vt 1   mms://....  and analyzing the
captured file.
Thanks for any consideration, and your work on this fine package.
