Allows you easily get meta information about any media file with unified interface.

It can retrieve following information:

• For any audio: length, bitRate, sampleRate, channels
• For any video: length, width, height, frameRate
• For any container: number of streams, type of streams, formats of streams

Usage

try {
  $media = wapmorgan\MediaFile\MediaFile::open('123.mp3');
  // for audio
  if ($media->isAudio()) {
    // calls to AudioAdapter interface
    echo 'Duration: '.$media->getAudio()->getLength().PHP_EOL;
    echo 'Bit rate: '.$media->getAudio()->getBitRate().PHP_EOL;
    echo 'Sample rate: '.$media->getAudio()->getSampleRate().PHP_EOL;
    echo 'Channels: '.$media->getAudio()->getChannels().PHP_EOL;
  }
  // for video
  else {
    // calls to VideoAdapter interface
    echo 'Duration: '.$media->getVideo()->getLength().PHP_EOL;
    echo 'Dimensions: '.$media->getVideo()->getWidth().'x'.$media->getVideo()->getHeight().PHP_EOL;
    echo 'Framerate: '.$media->getVideo()->getFramerate().PHP_EOL;
  }
} catch (wapmorgan\MediaFile\Exception $e) {
  // not a media or file is corrupted
}

Supported formats

• Audio - wav - flac - aac - ogg - mp3 - amr - wma
• Video - avi (also as container) - wmv (also as container) - mp4 (also as container)
