MediaInfo

MediaInfo supplies technical and tag information about a media file.

MediaInfoOverview

MediaInfo provides you with a quick access to the inner values of your audio and video files. Whether you want to glance at the set-up of tracks included in a file or you want to know all the precise details about the codecs used, MediaInfo will offer the suitable view.

You can choose between a graphical user interface to quickly select the appropriate view on the data and a command line interface to automatically retrieve and process media information in your own scripts. For these purposes, MediaInfo's views are customizable the easy way.

MediaInfo's Features:

  • Different and customizable views on media information (Text, Table, Tree Structure, HTML, XML...)
  • Data Export as Text, CSV, HTML, XML...
  • Graphical User Interface, Command Line Interface, DLL
  • Integration in MS-Windows (Drag'n'Drop, Context menu)
  • Localization

  • Video: Codec, Aspect Ratio, Frame Rate, Bit Rate...
  • Audio: Codec, Sampling Rate, Channels, Languages, Bit Rate...
  • Text: Language of Subtitles
  • Chapters: Nr. of Chapters, Outline

NEW

- DTS Neural Audio: display of DTS Neural Audio descriptor information (matrix encoded channels count and position)
- FFV1: version, bit depth, color space, chroma subsampling, versions 0 to 3
- HuffYUV: version, bit depth, color space, chroma subsampling, versions 1 to 3
- PDF: basic detection (goal is to detect PDF/A profile)
- HLS: support of encrypted streams (key must be in FileName.FileExt.key or provided via the library API)
- CDP: using CDP service descriptor for the list of 708 services + language information
- MXF: showing the real bit depth ("Quantization bits"); the count of bits stored in the file is in a new field "Stored bit depth" if it differs
- MXF: Audio "frame rate" (how PCM content is split in packets) information
- MXF: Audio block alignment byte size (hidden by default)
- VC-3: adding the commercial name "DNxHD" + bitrate class
- MXF: SMPTE ST 377-4 (MXF Multichannel Audio Labeling Framework)
- MXF: "ChannelLayoutID" new field (hidden by default) containing the MXF Channel Assignment Label
- Wave64: Duration
- CDP: frame rate
- IMF: improvements (still work in progress)
- QuickTime: ia13 CodecID
- CDP: using ccsvcinfo_section() for service presence and language information
- MXF/CDP: law rating (from CEA-608 XDS) information added (other containers were already supported)
- CEA-608: Program name information
- BMP: support of OS/2 headers
- HLS: com.apple.streaming.transportStreamTimestamp support
- ISM: ISMT / text (TTML) streams support
- MXF: detection of buggy BlockAlign from some muxers, so PCM bit depth is correctly detected despite the buggy metadata
- HEVC: library name of some encoding libraries
- MPEG-2 Video: picture structure for interlaced content (interlaced content can have a frame structure)
- HLS: support of some encrypted files (AES-128 with default IV and per segment), key is provided by the command line --File_Encryption_Key=(Base64 data)
- HEVC: adding support of x265 library name and x265 encoding settings
- ProRes: more details about ProRes in AVI or Matroska
- DV: support of AVd1 CodecID
- CMake: scripts improvements
- Matroska: file name of attachments
- HEVC: some streams with VUI were not parsed
- MPEG Video: was not correctly handling 1000:1001 frame rates and NDF time codes combination during frame count computing
- MPEG Video: was not correctly detecting the time stamp of the first frame in case of closed GOP with first frame not the I-frame
- XDCAM: information about the MXF header presence was not provided if MOV header has a glbl atom
- Some specific C++11 code is removed for full compatibility with older C++
- MXF: Time codes values were buggy in case of MXF with pre-charge ("Origin" not 0)
- MPEG-4 Visual: wrong analysis in case on video_object_layer_shape not set to regular
- MPEG-4/MOV: trying to display the summary differently when there is a difference between container and raw stream channels count information (long term method to be discussed)
- Non-Unicode version was not building anymore
- DyLib: trying to have a better support of pure C compilers
