how to find detailed indo about a video file
Hello all,
Once again I need help. I am trying to find a way to find out certain information about some video files that I have on my system, specifically the video bitrate and the resolution. The files are in mpg and mostly divx and xvid formats. I want to re-encode these files to playback on my Palm T5. Encodeing is not an issue though, when I have the right info. Thanks again, Dave |
runing almost any video program from command line will output much of this sort of thing automatically. eg:
Code:
[Diana Krall]$ mplayer "The Look Of Love.mpg" This what you're after? |
that is perfect, thank you very much

No sweat.
In general - there will be a command line version of whatever your favorite stuff is. (That's just how Linux stuff is set up.) The command line version will usually also provide lots of additional stuff to stdout ... and will have a verbatim mode (-v) for even more. GUI's exist to hide this. So if you want to find out what's going on - go to the CLI. |
