Output sheet view to a text file in MediaInfo
I have been struggling with just making a sheet view text file in MediaInfo. It's probably an easy do in Export ->
But I'm not getting a result. The Export screen with 10 options or whatever it is just makes it confusing. MediInfo searches keep referencing command line. Therefore In Win7: Please give the _steps_ to make a text file in the sheet mode seen in View of MediaInfo. Start with loading the program. |

If you want a 'sheet view text file' to be oppened in Excel (Office) or Calc (LibreOficce) you can try the 'CSV' format in Export screen.
If you want a standard text file, to be read be Notepad or Writer (LibreOficce), the 'sheet' mode don't have sense, use the 'text' mode instead.

Aside from the language proprietis I _have not understoood_ these verbal descriptions.
Give the steps: Load MKV > MediaInfo > File > Export > Text Tab > Here is where I get nothing. They want to deposit the file in MediaInfo program someplace. When I try to put it on the desktop or give it a name-- all of that. I cannot locate the supposed text file made. I've tried just saving the "example" and then do a search for it and nother is found. This should be dirt simple. Giving steps is the simple solution. |

Yes, my english is poor.
And maybe I can't understand loninapleton. What is the problem to write the desired location (1) or click in (2) to select folder and name.

Yes I have got that much now.
But what I see in various 'tags' to for example an MP4 movie seems to require more editing than I want to bother with. I'll give an example of that base text mode in your example and then show what is requested by a site I use. It can't be that difficult. People do hundreds. Next time I'll have the samples. |

You must use the MediaInfo command line version.
Read the ...MediaInfo\Contrib\CLI_Help.doc and you can create a loninapleton.txt file (attached) to format the output and used like this: C:\Portable\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe --Inform=file://C:\Portable\MediaInfo\loninapleton.txt "your_input.mkv" >Your_info.txt

Can I make a template in Notepad for the whole path needed and just change out the individual file name? And is this invoked at
the CMD prompt? In the example C:\Portable\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe --Inform=file://C:\Portable\MediaInfo\loninapleton.txt "your_input.mkv" >Your_info.txt I'd have to do by rote the path at C: c\my folder >subfolder > mkv name I am not knowledgeable on handling directory trees and such at system. Can you help with the needed string. Then I could paste from a Notepad template. I'll try some practice but some sort of streamlining would be helpful. |

Am a lazy person and never care enough to find better solution, but for multiple files operations, I usually just create a batch file, by first creating the list of the files to be processed:

There's also PowerShell that can do this in one liner set of commands using pipes, but I've never been particularly fond of PowerShell. |

This seems to work
MediaInfo.BAT [or MediaInfo.CMD] Code:
REM https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1917515#post1917515 REM https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1908619#post1908619 REM We DO NOT LIKE SPACES IN FILE NAMES (REM == REMark ie comment) REM We DO NOT LIKE ACCENTS IN FILE NAMES. setlocal REM Where to Find MediaInfo CLI version, eg "C:\Portable\MediaInfo\MediaInfo.exe" set MEDIAINFO="C:\BIN\MediaInfo.exe" REM Where to Find Inform.txt template, eg "C:\Portable\MediaInfo\loninapleton.txt" set INFORM="C:\BIN\Inform.txt" REM Where to get INPUT files, No terminating Backslash, "." = current directory (ie same dir as .Bat or .Cmd file) set INDIR="." REM Where to place OUTPUT files (MUST exist), No terminating Backslash. "." would be same as .bat file, ".\OUT" = OUT folder in same directory as bat file. set OUTDIR=".\OUTPUT" REM Below, can add INPUT extensions as eg *.WEBM (SPACE separated, Batch Processes all INPUT type files in INDIR) FOR %%A IN (*.AVI *.MKV *.MP4 *.MOV *.QT *.3GP *.DVB *.VOB *.MPG *.MPEG *M2P *.PS *.TS *.DIVX *.XVID *.FLV *.WMV *.ASF *.MXF) DO ( %MEDIAINFO% --Inform="file://%INFORM%" "%INDIR%\%%A" >"%OUTDIR%\%%~nxA.txt" ) Pause Modified from bat here:- https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.p...19#post1908619 which was originally written by someone else, and just has some mods by me. Here is result of 2 files out of about 8 I tested with, no probs. (I used Tebasuna51 loninapleton.txt RENAMED to C:\BIN\Inform.txt) big_buck_bunny_720p_h264.mov.txt Code:

EDIT: As well as NOT liking SPACES in file names, it dont like accents either. [either can break CLI functionality] EDIT: To change output format, just edit the INFORM text file [in this/my case] "C:\BIN\Inform.txt" as per MediaInfo_CLI docs.

This certainly looks like a good solution which I can simply
change some input information. I cannot understand how others are doing it: multicolored text, centering. But how to get that from MediaInfo text files is confounding. I'll review what I can of this. I prefer to print to paper but during my house stay during the Superbug I have not gotten to a library where I would do it. Is the batch file tested so it actually runs. Any tips on doing this so I don't run into any jams. |

It runs just fine on my system and paths, should not be too difficult to alter for yours, just no SPACES or Accents in your filenames.

After reading more carefully, I see I may have been missing any and all MediaInfo CLI. Is this a separate install. Or is it found in
the MediaInfo folder? If not, where should it go? Apologies for going through such a base level tutorial.. |

Thanks Teb, I had only looked at x64.

MediaInfo -f --Info-Parameters --Language=raw >C:\Z\MI_Info_Parameters.txt The raw parameter names are those names required for extraction of data, ie not human language style names for output(which might be converted to non English and also contain eg SPACES). Looks like above outputs same text file as attached above by Tebasuna51.

multicolored text, centering. That's are options when you write in the web. Paste your info and edit it. You can see that here but not in Notepad.
