= Media detail browser =
The package contains a UI for browsing media files and showing details of the
files.
= Browsing =
- in the preview hook of the file browser we run discover and update the details
- if one has grillo installed we could use grillo sources in addition to local files
- there should be a "open url" menu entry in addition
= Details =
- show container, video-tracks, audio-track, subtitle-trackes, metadata and
parsing messages
- auto-play after updating the details
have a menu command to turn auto-play off
- offer several commands in addition (see below)

== compare ==
- dup detail pane and allow to pick a new file
- show differing entries in red
- add a narrow vertical bar between the two details panes and mark blocks with a
delta red

- diffing one (broken) file against several known working files would be nice
- it would build ranges for the group of files (e.g. for the video width)
- it would highlight fields that the are different to any of the working files
2010-10-16 19:43:20 +00:00
== analyse ==
- play the file by using fakesinks and gather statistics:
- bitrate profiles for each a/mediainfo/v track
2010-10-25 07:54:07 +00:00
- media specific:
- audio: volume profile
- video: contrast profile
- show disconts as vertical bars

== structural view/hex view ==
- make parsing elements post structural messages (if enabled via property)
- message would contain:
- stream offset in bytes
- block identifier (e.g. fourcc)
- human readable description (if available)
- flags (e.g. if the block is used or skipped)
- indentation depth
- we would need a way to indicate that e.g. h264parse would be indented below
the containing container block
2010-10-16 19:43:20 +00:00
- a structured hex view would be nice
(somehow align the parse tree with the hexdump)
2010-10-25 07:54:07 +00:00
== unsorted ==
- handle chapters

= TODO for discoverer =
- get caps for container
- get duration per stream
