"Swag of Tools" : Collection of Utilities for MC
jmone:
MC uses ffmpeg / ffprob to provide stream info in video files. Unfortunately, at present it is unable to highlight if there is a DTS:X or ATMOS track (it just reports DTS-MA and TrueHD). Media Info can however.... so, here is a new version to test. I've added a new feature, MediaInfo that will:
- Download MediaInfo CLI to a subfolder
- Run it over the MC Library Entries you select
- Save the output of MediaInfo as an "Extra's File" (see pic)
- Update the "Compression Info" field if there is an ATMOS or DTS:X track found (see pic)
- Should work on BD, UHDBD, DVD, and Video Files
- Works on Audio files as well
Some notes:
- Media Info seems to generate some bizarrely long and incorrect details on some Blu-ray folders (but running it on files looks fine - so the Extra's File will have the details from the BD Folder and the Larget M2TS in the Folder)
- It can take awhile to generate these Extra's Files
- To see the Extra File, right click in MC ---> Extra ---> "YourFileName_MediaInfo.txt" to view
- If you want to reset the Compression Info back to MC's stock values, just right Click--> Update Library from Tags
- If you want to delete the Extra's File just do a search in Windows for "*MediaInfo.txt" and delete them
Let me know of any weirdness.
Thanks
Nathan

FYI - Just ran it over my Movies and TV series (post 2015 imported) and found I had:
- 115 entries with Atmos, and
- 7 with DTS:X
All seemed to work as it should. I'll now be able to setup a Zone Switch so I can Bitstream for Atmos / DTS:X and decode for the rest.

Wow, great work. I shall look into all this very soon. Exactly what I was looking for.

Curious - why do you decode the rest instead of bitstream?
jmone:
For me it is so I can use "Videoclock", turn it on and no dropped video frames. Others will want to decode for other MC DSP effects. All this needs decoded Audio ... but there is no way to decode Atmos or DTS:X so I'll need to bitstream these.
