Hi

I know that you can get file information when you click "view" and then "Stream and media info" BUT it is not thorough enough and it looks a bit messy because the data is variable.
Is it possible to get as much info as when u click "shift+F10" in media player classic or "alt+3" in winamp or BS player.
Like for example:
Video: MPEG2 Video 704x576 (4:3) 25.00fps 9556Kbps [Video]
Audio: Dolby AC3 48000Hz stereo 256Kbps [Audio]
Subtitle: DVD Subpicture [Subtitle]
(taken from media player classic)

I can't see much video information with VLC

This would be great then I can see which file has the best quality + i can copy and paste the information easily, i can't play VOB files in winamp and i have problems with other players with some files that describe info thoroughly, VLC is the best player it plays anything. It would be great if it also showed all information.

I hope this isn't much trouble to implement.

Thank you for your attention.

Sorry, but what is exactly missing in VLC. You can have all these information.

How can I see those informations in with VLC?

What information are missing in File Info and in file Statistics ?

You are correct. DVDs do NOT show all this info... but most other formats do.

hmmm... That is bad. Any trac ticket ?

Not that I'm aware of as I tend to believe it's an omission and not a bug.

Even MPC does not report everything accurately for MPEG. SAR and or DAR are not reported properly, while MPlayer reports this correctly.
