Bamcoverage unique mapping reads

Hi Guys

Would bamcoverage only calculate read-pairs if any pair maps to unique locations? As I my bam files were generated with multiple mappings, but for visualization I only want unique mapping locations. Does bamcoverage have this option?

Thanks!

You can try the bamCoverage options --minMappingQuality, --samFlagInclude or --samFlagExclude to take into account only unique properly paired reads. How to set these parameters will probably depend on the program and arguments you used for mapping.

How can i specify the SAM file flag NH=1 into option --samFlagInclude? what is the SAM flag code for this?
