Media Info

See codecs, bitrate, resolution, frame rate, HDR, channels, chapters and tags of any video or audio file.

Free, no uploads, no sign-up. Runs 100% in your browser.

How Media Info works

Uses MediaInfoLib compiled to WebAssembly (mediainfo.js, BSD-2-Clause). Only the parts of the file it needs are read, so even very large files open quickly.

Input: MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV, AVI, MP3, FLAC, WAV. Output: JSON, TXT.

How to use Media Info

  1. Drop a video onto Media Info.
  2. The first run downloads the ffmpeg engine (about 30 MB, once).
  3. Set your range, format or quality options.
  4. Process it (progress is shown live), then download.

Tips

  • Shorter clips and lower resolutions process much faster.
  • Processing speed depends on your CPU; plug in laptops for long jobs.
  • Keep the tab in the foreground while encoding.

Media Info FAQ

Are my files uploaded?
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser tab. Files are read from your disk into memory and the result is generated locally.
Is it free? Are there limits or watermarks?
Free and open source (MIT). There are no file-size caps, daily quotas, accounts or watermarks.
Does it work offline?
Yes, once the page (and any engine it needs) has loaded, it keeps working without a connection thanks to the service worker cache.
