MP4Viewer is an mp4 metadata analyser (ISO base media file format) written in python.
You can use it to analyse the metadata of mp4 files on the shell, a new gtk based window, or save it as a json file.
The definitions of structures used in the code can be found in the publicly available standard (it is not free to download anymore) ISO/IEC 14496-12 - ISO base media file format.
pip install --upgrade mp4viewer
python3 -m mp4viewer [-h] [-o {stdout,gui,json}] [-e] [-c {on,off}] file.mp4./parse.sh [-h] [-o {stdout,gui,json}] [-e] [-c {on,off}] file.mp4positional arguments:
input_file Location of the ISO bmff file (mp4)
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-o {stdout,gui,json}, --output {stdout,gui,json}
Specify the output format. Please note that pygtk is required for `gui`.
-c {on,off}, --color {on,off}
Toggle colors in console based output; on by default.
-j JSON_PATH, --json JSON_PATH
Path to the json file where the output should be saved. If this is specified, the json output will be generated and written to this file even if the requested output format is not
json. If the output format is json and this argument is not specified, the json object will be written to the current directory using "$PWD/$(basename input_file).mp4viewer.json"
-e, --expand-arrays Do not truncate long arrays
--debug Used for internal debugging
--latex Generate latex-in-markdown for github README
MP4Viewer uses gtk in graphics mode and requires pygtk3 for viewing results in a window. This usually comes preinstalled with recent versions of ubuntu.
