mp4box -info whatever.mov alternative ?

[spectrvm]

Just that, mp4box gives me all the container info for mov files except the one having a surround track such as AAC 5.1 (eg: Apple trailers) ... it refuses to show anything saying stbl/trak/moov has extra bytes, error opening the file blah blah blah ...

needing a tiny command line utility to produce a detailed log of what I have before I attempt to mux/do anything with it

I see there's something called mpeg4vol but I cannot find the executable, just source code

any guess ?

did you try mediainfo?

[spectrvm]

did you try mediainfo?

wow ! ... it looks very promising; now ...

What are those numbers added to some entries such as:
- Format_Settings_RefFrames/String : 2 frame2 (the ending 2)
- FrameRate/String : 29.970 fps3 (the ending 3)
- Height/String : 816 pixel3 (the ending 3)
etc etc ... (?)

Output format is a little bit ... messy; I mean, all those extra blank lines and tabs, ain't it ? an xml output option would been perfect !

Anyway is far more juicy than mp4Info :)

THAAAAANKS !
