• GitHub.
• This package is a wrapper around james-heinrich/getid3.

Note

The getID3 package, developed by James Heinrich, is a powerful tool for analyzing metadata of audio and video files. Here are some of its capabilities:

1. Metadata Extraction: getID3 can extract various types of metadata from multimedia files, including information about format, codec, duration, bitrate, sample rate, and much more.
2. Support for Various Formats: The package supports a wide range of audio and video formats, including MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG, AAC, WMA, AVI, MPEG, QuickTime, and many others.
3. Tag Processing: It is also capable of analyzing and extracting information from metadata tags, such as ID3 tags for MP3 files or similar tags for other formats.
4. Character Encoding Detection: getID3 can automatically detect the text encoding used in metadata, allowing for proper handling of different languages and special characters.
5. Stream Information Retrieval: This package can analyze the structure of multimedia files and provide information about the audio and video streams contained within them.
6. Flexibility and Customization: getID3 provides various options and settings for users, allowing them to customize its behavior according to the specific needs and requirements of their projects.

Note

These capabilities make the getID3 package a valuable tool for developers working with multimedia files, as well as for creating applications that require analysis and processing of audio and video data.

Use Facade MediaAnalyzer

• uploadFile()
• fromLocalFile()

<?php

use Plutuss\Facades\MediaAnalyzer;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class MediaAnalyzerController extends Controller
{
    public function index(Request $request)
    {
    
    // To add a file locally it must be in storage.
    // So that the Storage facade can read it.
    // The default disk value is taken from the .env file FILESYSTEM_DISK
     MediaAnalyzer::fromLocalFile('/video.mov')->getAllInfo();
     
      // OR
      
     MediaAnalyzer::fromLocalFile(
         path: 'files/video.mov',
         disk: 'public',  // "local", "ftp", "sftp", "s3"
     )->getAllInfo();
     
     
     // Request file
     MediaAnalyzer::uploadFile($request->file('video'))->getAllInfo();
     
    }

}

• List of available methods

    
    $media = MediaAnalyzer::uploadFile($request->file('video'))
    
    $media->getAllInfo();
    
    $media->getDuration();
    
    $media->comments();
    
    $media->getResolution();
    
    $media->getImage();
    
    $media->getTitle();
    
    $media->getAlbum();
    
    $media->getPlaytime();
    
    $media->getGenres();
    
    $media->getArtist();
    
    $media->getComposer();
    
    $media->getTrackNumber();
    
    $media->getCopyrightInfo();
    
    $media->getFileFormat();
    
    $media->getNestedValue('key.array')

• You can also refer to the property

  $media = MediaAnalyzer::uploadFile($request->file('video'))
  
      "video" => array:11 [▶]
      "warning" => array:5 [▶]
      "comments" => array:1 [▶]
      "encoding" => "UTF-8"
      "mime_type" => "video/quicktime"
      "quicktime" => array:11 [▶]
      "playtime_seconds" => 9.56
      "bitrate" => 50294133.891213
      "playtime_string" => "0:10"

    $media->video;
    
    $media->playtime_seconds;
    
    $media->playtime_string;
    
    $media->mime_type;

• The getNestedValue() method retrieves a value from a deeply nested array using "dot" notation

    $media = MediaAnalyzer::uploadFile($request->file('video'))

          "avdataoffset" => 48
          "avdataend" => 60101538
          "fileformat" => "quicktime"
          "video" => array:11 [▼
            "dataformat" => "quicktime"
            "resolution_x" => 1920.0
            "resolution_y" => 1080.0
            "codec" => "H.264"
            "bits_per_sample" => 24
            "frame_rate" => 25.0
            "bitrate" => 50294133.891213
            "compression_ratio" => 0.040424168829743
          ]
          "warning" => array:5 [▶]
          "comments" => array:1 [▶]


    $media->getNestedValue('video.codec')  // H.264
    $media->getNestedValue('video.resolution_x')   //  1920.0
