MediaInfoBundle
===============

[](#mediainfobundle)

This bundle provides a wrapper around the command line utility [mediainfo](http://mediaarea.net/en/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
------------

[](#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)

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

```
ac_media_info:
    path: /usr/bin/mediainfo
```

Usage
-----

[](#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
