MediaData helps display the metadata of mediafiles.
You can use it in console mode or gui mode.
The console mode displays information on the console:
The gui mode displays information in a GTK window in the form of a (tabbed) tree. It works in set mode or interactive mode.
In set mode the files to browse are explicitly mentioned on the command-line: this may be used in conjunction with Nautilus-actions to provide integration with the browser (please also note that the nautilus-mediadata pakage will provide similar functionality).
In interactive mode, nothing is specified on the command-line and the user is free to browse specific files at run time.
Please also note that whenever two mediafiles are opended, a comparison tab will open, which displays the differences.
Finally, mediadatadb is a command-line app that sends the extracted info to a mysql database. It is trickier to use as it requires database info to be fetched from a .mediadatadb.cfg file in the user's home. Each section in this file forms a set of parameters to be used that has to be filled in by the user prior to use. The name of the section is the first parameter.
Please note that file can be a folder, in which case all mediafiles it contains will be scanned.
