    Select media

    Choose a local audio or video file from your device.

When this tool is useful

  • Confirm the duration of a deliverable before upload.
  • Check a video frame size for an editing handoff.
  • Record the byte size and reported type of an audio asset.

Browser and format limits

  • Available properties depend on browser support for the container and codec.
  • The viewer does not parse every embedded tag or production metadata field.
  • Protected media and unsupported codecs may not reveal a duration or dimensions.

Practical tips

TIP 1

A filename extension does not always identify the internal codec.

TIP 2

Test the file in its destination player when compatibility matters.

TIP 3

Use the thumbnail generator when you also need a visual frame from a video.

Media Metadata Viewer questions

Which metadata does this viewer show?

It shows browser-readable details such as duration, file size, reported MIME type, and video dimensions when available.

Why is the duration unavailable?

The browser may not support the file container or codec, or it may not be able to read the media timeline.

Does the viewer play or modify my media?

It can load a local preview to read properties, but it does not edit or re-encode the source file.
