Drawing a Graph of the bitrate distribution

[ivan_alias]

Can anyone tell me if there is a tool that will draw a graph of the bitrate of a movie?

I want to feed a film to a tool and have it display a graph of the bitrate distribution by time. 2 axies, bitrate up the side and time in minutes along the bottom.

how hard would it be to write a tool or does anyone know one that is available?

Thanks v much

Ivan

Thanks very much for the links, but I wonder does anyone know of a tool for mpeg4 (Xvid) files?

I know I can see this info in FFDSHOW but can't find a way to log it and my programming skills are zero for writing such a thing :(
