The command "mediainfo --Info-Parameters" is used to display the list of available information parameters or options for the MediaInfo software.
MediaInfo is a utility tool used to extract detailed information about various media files, including video, audio, and subtitle formats. It can be useful for analyzing media properties like codec, resolution, bit rate, duration, etc.
By running the command "mediainfo --Info-Parameters", you can view the available information parameters that you can use with the MediaInfo software. These parameters allow you to specify what specific information you want to extract from a media file.
For example, some common information parameters are:
-
General: This parameter provides general information about the media file, such as format, duration, file size, overall bit rate, etc.
-
Video: This parameter displays information related to the video stream, including codec, resolution, frame rate, bit depth, etc.
-
Audio: This parameter shows details about the audio stream, such as codec, sample rate, channel layout, bit depth, etc.
-
Text: This parameter provides information about subtitle or closed caption streams, including format, language, title, etc.
By using specific information parameters, you can customize the output of MediaInfo to display only the information you are interested in rather than a complete dump of all information.
The "mediainfo --Info-Parameters" command helps you explore and understand the available options, allowing you to tailor the output according to your requirements when working with media files.
