MediaInfo answers a simple question that Mac tools often dodge: what is actually inside this media file? Drop in a video or audio file and it lays out the container, codecs, bit rates, frame rate, colour details, subtitle tracks and tags in one clear report. Video editors and archivists keep it nearby for checking exports, sorting libraries and solving playback puzzles.

Key Features

  • Full container details such as format, duration and overall bit rate
  • Video stream facts including codec, aspect ratio, frame rate and bit depth
  • Audio stream facts including codec, sample rate, channels and language
  • Subtitle and chapter listings with formats and languages shown
  • Reports can be viewed in text, sheet, tree or HTML form and exported

How to Download

  1. Use the download button on this page to get the MediaInfo installer for Mac.
  2. Or Download from the official site and choose the Mac graphical build.
  3. Open the downloaded file, install MediaInfo, then drop any media file onto it.

System Requirements

MediaInfo is a small and light utility for Mac, and it reads files rather than playing them, so it runs comfortably on modest hardware. It is open source software from MediaArea, released under a BSD style licence.

FAQs

Does MediaInfo play my videos?

No. MediaInfo only reads and reports the technical details of a file. For playback you still use your normal player, now armed with better facts.

Which view should I start with?

The sheet and tree views are easy first stops. The text view packs in the most detail when you need to compare two files line by line.

Can I save a report for later?

Yes. MediaInfo can export its findings as text, CSV or HTML, which is handy for delivery notes, bug reports and library records.
