MediaInfo is a file inspection tool for anyone who needs to check the contents of an audio or video file. It can help editors confirm encoding settings before a project or help listeners identify files in a music collection. Open a file or folder to examine its container, tracks, and stored tags.

Check a media file’s encoding and streams without opening it in an editor.

The program presents results in several layouts, from a brief overview to text, tree, HTML, XML, or JSON displays. It identifies codecs, bitrates, frame rates, audio channel arrangements, and subtitle languages. Reports can be exported for later use, while a command-line option supports repeated checks in scripts. Optional Windows Explorer integration adds inspection to the file context menu.

Features:

  • Inspect audio and video stream properties
  • Read title, album, and track tags
  • Identify subtitle formats and language labels
  • Switch between text, tree, and structured views
  • Export file analysis reports
  • Check batches through a command-line tool
