README

This bundle provides a wrapper around the command line utility mediainfo. This utility lets you get metadata about various multimedia formats.

For this bundle to work you must, of course, have mediainfo installed on your system.

Installation

Require in your composer.json:

{
  "require": {
    "ac/media-info-bundle": "~1.2.0"
  }
}

Add to your AppKernel.php;

//app/AppKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    return array(
    //...
        new AC\MediaInfoBundle\ACMediaInfoBundle(),
    //...
    );
}

Configuration

Configuration is very simple, you only need to provide the path to the mediainfo executable:

ac_media_info:
    path: /usr/bin/mediainfo

Usage

Usage is equally simple:

$mediainfo = $container->get('ac.mediainfo');

//will return a structured php array with the mediainfo results
$array = $mediainfo->scan('/path/to/file.mp4');

It's important to note that the keys under $array['file'] contain arrays as values, because mediainfo reports many values in a variety of representations. You can see an example below.

All keys returned by mediainfo are normalized to lower-case. For example, if you use the mediainfo:scan command to export the data in yaml, you would see:

app/console mediainfo:scan /path/to/example.webm
