[SOLVED] How to customise output from mediainfo?

Hi Folks

I only want a few lines from a mediainfo command, for example:

I only want these lines only:

Code:

Format                                   : MPEG-4
File size                                : 75.6 MiB
Duration                                 : 8 min 24 s
Overall bit rate                         : 1 257 kb/s
Bit rate                                 : 1 123 kb/s
Width                                    : 704 pixels
Height                                   : 576 pixels
Display aspect ratio                     : 4:3

I know I can add

Code:

--Inform="Video;%DisplayAspectRatio%"

to show the aspect ratio, but that's ll it does it report 1.333, I want the whole line

I'm sure I've seen this done before, but I cannot find it.

TIA

Code:

$> mediainfo --Output="Video;bpp=%Bits-(Pixel*Frame)%\nwidth=%Width%\nheight=%Height%\nframerate=%Framerate%" In\ Search\ Of\ A\ Flat\ Earth-JTfhYyTuT44.mp4
bpp=0.028
width=1920
height=1080
framerate=

I'm sure you can figure out the rest.

Cheers, figured it out, and now it's in my notes not to be forgotten.
