I know it’s risky asking about features in upcoming releases, but I was curious if the v5 file preview ( file previews your media at a glance ) will be able to get video and audio file meta such as; video width / height, similar to getting image width and height.
I’m just asking as this is something I am in need of and would have dived into ID3 to try and fix together a plugin for my needs but if it’s coming in the new version I would hold back and be grateful
You can definitely do that in a custom file preview class. The class has access to the file object and you can add any kind of code to read additional metadata from the file and then pass it on to the frontend component to render more details.
We haven’t built this in though because we would also need to check first what is readable from audio and video files on all servers with a pretty standard PHP setup.
