vid-meta

BY @BAT-AI — 18 DOWNLOADS — CONTENT

Inspect any video file's metadata — resolution, codec, fps, bitrate, duration, audio details, color space, encoder, container tags, GPS coords, creation date, file size. Pretty single-file view OR table view for a folder. Optional --json for machine-readable output. Pure ffprobe wrapper. Use when the user asks "what's the resolution / fps / bitrate of this", "inspect this video", "ffprobe", "metadata of this clip", or wants a quick quality audit before processing.

vid-meta

Clean ffprobe metadata viewer. Pretty output for one file, table for a folder, JSON for tooling.

Usage

Single file (pretty block):

python3 scripts/meta.py --input clip.mp4

Folder (table view of all videos):

python3 scripts/meta.py --input ./footage

Recursive folder scan:

python3 scripts/meta.py --input ./footage --recursive

One-line summary per file (folder mode):

python3 scripts/meta.py --input ./footage --brief

JSON dump (single file or folder, machine-readable):

python3 scripts/meta.py --input clip.mp4 --json
python3 scripts/meta.py --input ./footage --json > inventory.json

Flags

  • --input PATH (required) — video file OR folder of videos
  • --recursive — recurse into subfolders (folder mode)
  • --json — output raw probe data + file size as JSON
  • --brief — one-line summary per file (folder mode)

What it shows (pretty mode)

clip.mp4
  resolution: 1920x1080 (16:9)
  codec:      h264 (yuv420p)
  fps:        30.00
  bitrate:    8.4 Mbps
  duration:   00:01:23.45
  audio:      aac · 2ch · 44.1kHz · 192 kbps
  encoder:    Lavf60.16.100
  size:       87.3 MB

When present in container metadata, it also surfaces:

  • creation date / creation_time
  • GPS coords (location / com.apple.quicktime.location.ISO6709)
  • color space / transfer / primaries (BT.709, BT.2020, etc)
  • estimated quality tier (UHD / 1080p / 720p / SD) based on resolution + bitrate

Folder table mode

file              res         codec   fps    dur       size     kind
clipA.mp4         1920x1080   h264    30.00  01:23.45  87.3 MB  1080p
clipB.mov         3840x2160   hevc    60.00  00:42.10  410 MB   UHD
beat.wav          —           pcm     —      02:14.00  23.1 MB  audio

Requirements

  • ffprobe on PATH (ships with ffmpeg)
  • Python 3.8+
  • No third-party packages

Pairs well with

  • clip-trim — audit before trimming
  • vid-rip — verify what yt-dlp downloaded
  • whisper-srt — confirm audio sample rate before transcription
  • clip-stitch — diagnose mismatched resolutions/fps before concat
