NEW: Additional video file metadata
jmone:
More testing, and it's looking good overall
The scan does not work on MPLS (created by Particles).

Great new feature!
I was playing around with some of the video data fields and noticed an anomaly.
MC shows the frame rate as 120 for one of my videos, but MediaInfo detects it as 59.94.
Is this a bug or an issue with my setup?

Testing on 30.0.75 : Ran both Analyse Video and Video Black Bar Analysis over all my Videos (6,779)
Analyse Video: Looking really solid,
- (currently) Not supported for JTV, BDMV3D, IFO
- Works now with MPLS Particles
- Only other ones that did not get any info were 2 x UHD BDMV Movie rips, and (for some reason) I have 25 x BDMV (not MPLS) particles that also did not work (but I'll re-create these as MPLS). No idea why the 2 x BDMV did not get any info (BD UHD of "Fury" and "The Patriot")
Black Bar Analysis: This worked OK - and we all know this will never be "perfect", but some #'s and thoughts:
- 12.5% did not get any Video Crop values
- A significant set of others are just wrong
- When running Black Bar Analysis, it seems to overwrite the Aspect Ratio BUT only if it had a value before, it did overwrite those that had "0" in it after doing the prior Analyse Video
"Aspect Ratio" Field: It seems this field can be updated with various values pending what is run last:
- Update Library from Tags = uses "Dimension" Field
- Black Bar Analysis = use "Video Crop" Field
- I've also got some 500 videos where the "Aspect Ratio" was set to "0.00" at some point and it seems to be "stuck" on this value and neither running Update Library from Tags or Black Bar Analysis will change it.
I'm not sure what other think???, but my suggestion would be:
- Use the "Dimensions" field to calculate "Aspect Ratio" as was traditionally done
- Use the "Video Crop" field to populate a new "Aspect Ratio (Crop)" field
- Make the new "Aspect Ratio (Crop)" field user editable so the dodgy ones can be manually fixed (note: I see the "Video Crop" & "Aspect Ratio" fields are user editable which is good)
Note: Zybex came up with a calculated "Aspect Ratio (Crop)" for SOT so I'd not want to cut across his bow
Hendrik:
I also have a few files that report Aspect Ratio of 0.0, I'll be looking at them to see whats up with that. This seems to be the value the analysis calculates, but i'm not sure why yet.
I do not plan to have a separate field at this time. I don't see the value in knowing the distinct aspect ratio with black bars or without, as we really only care about the active image aspect ratio - its also not used in playback and is purely informational. (feel free to present an argument why it would be useful!)
The logic should generally try to avoid resetting it when you have a value obtained from the black bar analysis.
As for cropping being wrong -
All my files analysed fine with .75 now, none were skipped any longer.
If you have any files that were skipped, or analysed to obviously wrong values, please do share.
lepa:
I have some SD 4:3 (dimension 720x576) television recordings inside matroska which gets detected like
Video Crop 0x0x720x576
Aspect Ratio 1.00
Also some with dimension 1800 x 1080
Video Crop 0x0x1800x1080
Aspect Ratio 0.00
