   Try decoder --help first.

   There you should find the line

   decode_export         - decrypt a FRITZ!OS export file
   

   and taking this hint into account it's obviously, that you've used a wrong call.

   Now try decoder decode_export --help ... this will reveal the "secret":

   Usage:
   
       decode_export [ options ] [ -- ] [ password | serial maca ] [ [ < ] input-file ]
   
   Supported options are:
   
   -t, --tty              - don't quit execution, if STDIN is connected to a terminal device
   -a, --alt-env filename - use an alternative source for the 'urlader environment'
   -c, --checksum         - re-compute (and replace) the checksum for the provided export file, after
                            the cipher-text values were replaced with the corresponding clear-text
   -l, --low-memory       - do not try to consolidate input data into a single buffer
   -b, --block-size size  - read input data in blocks of the specified size
   -v, --verbose          - show additional information on STDERR
   -q, --quiet            - suppress any error messages on STDERR
   -s, --strict           - treat warnings as errors and exit
   -h, --help             - show this information (on STDOUT) and exit
   -V, --version          - show version (on STDOUT) and exit
   

   (and more explanations may be found there)

   HTH

   PS: Due to this is not really an "issue" (this means "a problem with the software", not "I don't know, how to use it."), so I'll convert this to a discussion thread.
