Mediainfo

Wrapper around the mediainfo command for obtaining metadata information about media files with the Q promise library

Overview

This module provides an interface to the mediainfo command. It returns the (parsed) output of the command with all the keys lower-cased. For windows user you don't have to install extra packages.

Usage

The module exposes just a single interface:

mediainfo("/path/to/file", "/path/to/file2", [...]).then(...)

It's really easier to just see the output, so here:

[{ tracks: 
   [ { type: 'Image',
       format: 'PNG',
       format_info: 'Portable Network Graphic',
       width: '599 pixels',
       height: '599 pixels',
       bit_depth: '32 bits',
       compression_mode: 'Lossless',
       stream_size: '88.1 KiB (100%)' } ],
  complete_name: 'TEST.png',
  format: 'PNG',
  format_info: 'Portable Network Graphic',
  file_size: '88.1 KiB' }]

Example

var mediainfo = require("mediainfoq");

mediainfo("/path/to/file", "/path/to/other/file")
    .then(function (res) {
      console.log(res)
    }).catch(function (err) {
      console.error(err)
    });

Requirements
