+                 <para>Specify the size of the raw input in bytes.  If you are
+                   encoding raw samples from stdin, you must set this option
+                   in order to be able to use --skip, --until, --cue-sheet, or
+                   other options that need to know the size of the input
+                   beforehand.  If the size given is greater than what is
+                   found in the input stream, the encoder will complain about
+                   an unexpected end-of-file.  If the size given is less,
+                   samples will be truncated.</para>
