Hello Is it possible to add a "ErrorDetectionType" colum. I don't find this data in the list of colums

Hello, I have created a PS1 file that will compare audio/video files using the CLI version of Media Info. It will also compare directory trees which contain Audio/video files providing metadata about the files in the tree listings. The tree listings use a configurable templet.txt file. I would like to add Images as an option to the program. When I set the ps1 file to output full metadata and select image files it produces the full data about the image. But I need to create a template file to use...
I am going to bump this since it was the first google result and remains unanswered. I found it elsewhere. Add --ParseSpeed=1 to the command, it is much slower but will give you the sizes every time. mediainfo --ParseSpeed=1 filename
But, this does not explain why MediaInfo displays a name for value then uses a different name to extract that value! It does. Again, if you want to have the "right" names, use " --Language=raw" on the command line instead of the translation to English for humans. You are not the center of the world with English, and it is not because that we default to English for humans that the interface for computer is in English for humans. If I want a displayed parameter named 'something' and the extraction...
But, this does not explain why MediaInfo displays a name for value then uses a different name to extract that value! There is no apparent reference I could find that lists the Mediainfo names displayed and the corresponding one to use when extracting that information! If I want a displayed parameter named 'something' and the extraction name is 'nothis' how am I supposed to know what parameter to use for extracting the data I want? Stating that using --raw parameters gives you the solution when it...
I don't know why MediaInfo would display a parameter and use different spelling For your information, in some configurations of MediaInfo, the program is absolutely not aware about "Color primaries", as it does not have the Machine to plain English dictionary. In the case we implement the template system with accepting one of the languages on Earth, this template may not work everywhere, only when the program has the Machine to the used language dictionary.
I don't know why MediaInfo would display a parameter and use different spelling We already explained it in the first comment. It is not about spelling. You imagine that everyone uses MediaInfo in English, this is not the case. What is displayed if for humans, translated in their language. The template does not support human language, and especially not any language on Earth, we could implement that if there is a sponsor for that, in the meantime we use letters accepted everywhere by machines (in...
I listed all the parameters from MediaInfo 'Known Parameters' and the CLI output in cmd. They are both the same as are the CLI --Language Raw parameters. I have attached a spreadsheet listing them all, should this be of any help to others that come across the same problem. It appears that the list of parameters to use are spelled differently to those displayed in the MediaInfo views which confused me. I don't know why MediaInfo would display a parameter and use different spelling when using that...
but it doesn't explain why the Medainfo parameter which others state has to be the same including capitalisation and spelling turn out to be different! It does, please read again the other comment. It is not unreasonable to expect the listed parameter to be the one to use, not some unknown alternative spelling. We don't support template field in e.g. French or Chinese, English is no exception, that's all. None of which return the parameter value. So what should the parameter actually be? Read again...
OK , thanks that works for the above, but it doesn't explain why the Medainfo parameter which others state has to be the same including capitalisation and spelling turn out to be different! How are we expected to know which option to use and which one is right? It is not unreasonable to expect the listed parameter to be the one to use, not some unknown alternative spelling. Now for the next similar issue "Video;%bit_depth%" reports nothing. I have tried: "Video;%Bit_depth%" as shown in MediaInfo...
Let's assume "Video;%Color primaries%". You use the "translated" (here, in plain English, but it could be another language) words, used for display to users, not computers. You can see the field names to use in the templates with e.g. the XML or JSON output in the GUI, or with --Language=rawoption with the CLI. Also available at https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo/Support/Fields In your case, "Video;%colour_primaries%".
Hi I have just signed up to Source Forge, this is my first post. I have written a Powershell script that extracts the parameter from the CLI and updates the filename with that parameter. All works fine except for all parameters with spaces. I am using GUI and CLI versions 25.10. Using the GUI I can see a parameter listed, let's assume "Video:%Format%" and when using Mediainfo it returns the listed value This also works for every single word parameter I have used, both in Powershell and manually from...
Title pretty much says it all. After installing the new 25.10 version I verified the option for Explorer Extension is selected in Preferences. I had it with no issues under many past versions for years. I've rebooted by computer and even tried reinstalling a 2nd time. No luck. What can I do to get the MediaInfo option in my context menu again?
this is a 0 filled file, what do you expect from it? If there is something to recover: - need the whole file for checking if there is ore than 0 filled bytes. - recovering is not the purpose of MediaInfo, it will be custom (not free) dev.

Jerome, any progress ?
Jerome, here is a ~25minute DSF and compressed WV using wavpack 5.8. The WV file is valid but MEDIAINFO reports only 1min 56 seconds. Google drive shared folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1x78YPDZ2oIzx8sEYf4d6VmQMVPOKO-9o?usp=sharing

I second this request. This would be especially helpful scanning through a bunch of dual language anime to quickly determine the default language.
I was preparing my answer with that :).
I think I answered my own question. Looks like the CentOS_8 version works with Amazon Linux 2023. I was able to experiment and get v25.04 installed on a container and running successfully.
HI there. I've been experiences issues similar to the ones details in this post https://sourceforge.net/p/mediainfo/discussion/297610/thread/86f3f5aeea/ where quicktime .mov files are randomly getting conformance errors when using mediainfo v24.06. I've been trying to upgrade to v25.04, but there doesn't appear to be an available binary that can work with Amazon Linux 1 & 2, which I'm currently using for my docker containers. Before I go down the rabbit hole of upgrading to Amazon Linux 2023, is...
How do I include brackets in custom template? cause it's not including the brackets in the final output. This is my template: Video;[B]Video:[/B] %Width%x%Height% | %DisplayAspectRatio/String% | %Format_Commercial% %Format/Info% | %Duration/String%\r\n Audio;[B]Audio:[/B] %Language/String% %Format/String% %Channel(s)% CH\r\n Text;[B]Subtitle:[/B] %Language/String% %Format% %Title%\r\n File_End;\n
the result may contains some errors, Which errors? You showed errors in something not from MediaInfo (MediaInfo report was processed in some way) doesn't produce the same result (for around 1% of the mkv processed) that processing a single mkv, in my case this one : Which result is different? Issue here is that you provide reports with 2 changes (-f & --BOM) so I can not compare. Provide 2 reports with only --BOM as the difference. In the Summary.jpg below, I colored as green (sorry, not very visible)...
Sorry, what I say is that if you extract the datas of a folder with --BOM commutator, the result may contains some errors, which doesn't occur when you extract separately the datas for each file. Then, the command to process a folder : MediaInfo.exe V:\_Films_to_IMDB_\__DivX__ --logfile = V:\_Films_to_IMDB_\__DivX__\MediaInfo_DivX_PB.csv --BOM doesn't produce the same result (for around 1% of the mkv processed) that processing a single mkv, in my case this one : MediaInfo.exe V:\_Films_to_IMDB_\__DivX__\tt16366836.mkv...

If I understand well, the summary indicates that MediaInfo_DivX_PB.csv lists the tracks (V/A/A/T/T) with ID 1 2 3 4 5 but MediaInfo_DivX_PB.csv contains for this file tt16366836.mkv the ID order 1 2 4 3 5 as expected, and your summary indicates the right order for other CSV files. I see no problem in practice, you have the ID and StreamOrder order you expect in all CSV files except the summary file but the summary file is not from MediaInfo so not our business.
Hello Jerome, I think that I underestand now the issue. The -f commutator provides more informations, but the same ID ( = StreamOrder + 1 ) that previously. The issue comes (IMHO) from how the datas are extracted. 1) I extract the datas only for my problematic mkv (tt16366836.mkv) : the Output is correct. 2) I extract the datas for all the mkv located in the same folder that the problematic one : now some mkv have incorrect ID in the Output. Maybe then, I should extract the data for each mkv, instead...
Hello Jerome, For your question, I don't know.. I'm gonna trying the option -f, thank you ! EDIT : A friend said me to use "--BOM", but I see now that the result returned with "-f" looks very interesting ! Many thanks :)
Hello Jerome, For your question, I don't know.. I'm gonna trying the option -f, thank you !
Is the ID listed by MKVMerge really the ID, or the track position in the file? (it starts with 0, it is likely a track position and not the track ID MediaInfo can provide the track position with "mediainfo -f" with the command line, and this is the StreamOrder value.
Hello, I made a script with MediaInfo to extract the datas (mainly Audio languages + SubTitles) to keep only the FRA+ENG audio & S/T tracks + MKVToolNix\mkvmerge.exe to keep only those ones and define FRA as Dft.. It works fine, except on some very few movies, where the ID doesn't match between MediaInfo & MKVInfo ?! For example for the same MKV movie, I get 2 different informations : MediaINFO : V ID : 1 A ID : 2 A ID : 3 S ID : 4 S ID : 5 S ID : 6 MKVinfo : V + Numéro de la piste: 1 (ID de piste...
I can close this out because I discovered that ffmpeg can divide videos quite easily which will save me a lot of work. Thanks again.
I am dividing AVI video files with y800 codec and approx 1800 frames each. These are 256 brightness grayscale with 1 byte per pixel and 640x480 size. My plan of attack is to read in N bytes from the file which should give me the header info. I then read in chunks of say 300 frames (300x640x480 bytes) and append these to the header info N bytes. I am currently guessing how many bytes to read in for the header. This works for the first output file which surprised me because it will only have 300 frames...
Oh man, I was worried when I saw the word "patch" (surely you're not asking us to decompile, patch, and recompile? That would be horrible ^^) Then I looked into the Tickets >Patches section, where I have to stumble upon a comment under a patch submission that tells me that there is an active repo on GitHub! 😅 I thought MI was closed source since 2019, by the state of this SourceForge page. https://sourceforge.net/p/mediainfo/patches/87/#f9f8 we definitely need to communicate more about GitHub than...
If you don't see it in the GUI, you will not see it with the DLL. HeaderSize is currently implemented for MP4/MOV, WM and ADIF, do you look with a file from 1 of theses formats?
Thanks for the quick response. I was using the advanced mode but still couldn't see the HeaderSize. I will now give the DLL a try.
I’m wondering what the command line options are for the GUI version (specifically the Windows version, if implementation differs) No. Where is the official documentation for command line arguments for GUI and CLI versions, respectively? GUI: no option: CLI: a bit with mediainfo --help, but not exhaustive, we are looking for sponsors for this task. Is there a way to load the GUI with a specific view template? No, usually people use the GUI as is or the CLI or DLL with options and show the result in...

Hi, I am writing an app that will split Y800 video files into a number of smaller video files. To do this I need to know the size in bytes of the video header.

Hi, Is there any update about this? I have the same error in the latest version of Mediainfo (not the previous one). It appears when I embed a CEA 608 and/or 708 captions inside a Quicktime - ProRes.
I'm thinking why not just use (Win10 start menu) icons (code) from the version (MediaInfo 24.06.0 2024-06-27) where the (Win10 start menu) icons are perfect? Why change that? It's just aesthetics, I know, but changing something so basic is both clumsy and completely unnecessary... annoying to say the least...

Understood. This means that there will be no such setting.

The program itself does not have such a setting. If you mean the standard Windows window setting "Size", it is reset when the program is restarted.
