Get All Information About Your Media Files Quickly With MediaInfo

image You can organize and manage your large collection of media files with various managers. Each certainly has pros and cons and can’t satisfy all your need. So why don’t you write your own media manger (Believe me, you just need to know how to program at a basic level in order to write this, there are many free source code out there you can reuse and optimize to meet your need). The thing probably is how to get all information about your media files. You can do this manually but I can’t due to my ‘fat’ collection (it may takes a year or more). Fortunately, I’ve just found this small and tidy utility which does this job even perfectly. With MediaInfo, you can get all info you need and export it to text HTML, CSV… files which might be easily imported and processed by your application.
