I'm running this really great program on my winxp machine (version 3.4.0) and I get a wrong bitrate (only for video) with the 'import informations from file' feature....
it's not totally wrong, but, well some kbs aside

did u know that?

Yes, it is written somewhere that the video bitrate is not always very acurate.
It is calculated from the size of the file and the audio bitrate.
But in addition of video & audio there are few KB / MB in the file, so the calculated number is not quite right.

but still better than nothing and it is a good quality indicator

Bitrates of (S)VCD

Why isn“t the detection of bitrates with (S)VCD supported?
Is it to difficult?
Would be great if ANTP would support that :grinking:

I do not know how to get information from MPEG1/MPEG2 :(
I found a C++ source code but it seems way to complex to convert it to Pascal (for Delphi).
I should ask its author if I can put his code in a DLL and use as it.
If somebody wants to make for me a Pascal function, or a DLL in C/C++ to get these information, he is welcome :D

Codec id

Maybe you should contact the author of GSpot wich is a software to identify the codec used by a video file... It can also check wether the codec is installed or not :grinking:

The list of codec is impressive for a so tiny software (300 Ko) !!!

Maybe he could help you...

well for all the audio/video of AVI I think that AMC already identify them quite well.
I found this:

that could be useful.
I could make calls to the program, so use it like a plugin.
I'll use that for the next version.
