- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Gives detailed informations about multimedia files, especially
- the codecs needed to play the file and where to download these
- codecs if they are missing on your system.
-
-
- Filetypes recognized :
- ----------------------
-
- avi, asf, ogg, ogm, mp3, mpg, rm, rmvb, vob, wav, wma, wmv;

-
-
-
- Help Guide :
- ------------
-
- - Icons : eye = video not viewable
- speaker = audio not hearable or no audio in file
-
- - Quick Analyze : there are 2 levels of testing which can be made to see if a multimedia
- file will "work" on your computer; the second level works by asking
- DirectShow if it can play the file. The problem there is that it takes
- a lot of time, thus is can be disabled with the "Quick Analyze" option.
-
- - Removing a column : just right-click on a column header; a confirmation box will pop up.
-
- - Header : not the precise and real header, but a header for debug purposes. The
- size of this file may vary depending on the format (big size for MPEG
- files).
-
- - Quality : based on following formula (I'm open to improvments):
-
- sum of:
-
- 20% video framerate (Min = 20 fps, Max = 30 fps )
- 30% video resolution (Min = TV 160*120, Max = 640*480 )
- 30% video bitrate (Min = 500 Kbps, Max = 2000 Kbps)
- 20% audio bitrate (Min = 96 Kbps, Max = 192 Kbps )
-
- Data out of bound is forced to the lower or higher value accordingly.
-
- - Duration : for some mpeg and ogm files, this information is not present.
-
- - Data amount : sizes in bytes, rates in bits per seconds.
-
- - Settings : not saved if you don't have administrator rights on your computer.
