FFmpeg.NET

FFmpeg wrapper around FFmpeg.AutoGen for .NET.

AVIO is the root namespace of this library.

Probing

Use AVIO.FFProbe for probing files.

The return data is very similar to the output from ffprobe.

using AVIO;

ProbeResult probeResult = FFProbe.File("...");

probeResult.FormatName;
probeResult.FormatLongName;
probeResult.Extensions;
probeResult.MimeType;
probeResult.StartTime;
probeResult.Duration;
probeResult.Size;
probeResult.BitRate;
probeResult.ProbeScore;
probeResult.Tag;

// loop the video streams
foreach (VideoStream videoStream in probe.Videos)
{
    videoStream.Width;
    videoStream.Height;
}

Probe visitor pattern

You can also manually parse the AVFormatContext, the library will take care of freeing the resources, you need to manually free the visitor by yourself.

using AVIO;

CustomData data = FFProbe.File("...", new Visitor());

class Visitor : IAVFormatContextVisitor<CustomData>
{
    public unsafe CustomData Visit(AVFormatContext* formatContext)
    {
        // ... your code can iterate trough the context and return a CustomData instance.
    }
}
