App needed to automate task: Examine / check video files, report on codec, other attributes

[John Bartley K7AAY]

App needed to automate task: Examine / check video files, report on
codec, other attributes, working with a group of files (specified by
script? directory?)

Looking for an application which can look into multiple files
automatically and generate a report / text file showing
PATH\FILENAME.EXT CODEC BITRATE FRAMESIZE FRAMERATE
PROFILE INTERLACED/PROGRESSIVE
or as close to that as I can get.

I am agnostic as to the operating system it runs on.

Thank you kindly for your thoughtful and on-topic responses.

Forgot to mention, said app should actually examine the bitstream, not
just look in the header.
Thank you kindly.

If I understand you correctly, this is exactly what the RVideo Inspector class does. The Inspector takes an input file and investigates the metadata (codec, bitrate, resolution, framerate, etc.). Interlaced/progressive is a little more difficult - anyone here have experience with that?

Are you looking to hire a developer or a team to build this app for you? If so, I'm pretty busy for the next few months, but maybe someone else on the list could help you out.
