6, You can select the text in MediaInfo and then copy and paste then your posting. Remember to use the 'Code' option and paste the text into the code box on your posting so that it's more readable.

Once installed allows you right-click on a media file from Windows Explorer and get MediaInfo information from the context menu.

HI
you can use https://mediaarea.net/MediaInfoOnline to read media info.

It's purely local.
No media is transmitted over the internet.
It uses a compiled library for WASM.
