In this talk, MediaArea founder and technical lead Jérôme Martinez provides a global view of the different tools we use (or facilitate use of) for media analysis. We will cover the following: Metadata extraction and review with Mediainfo; file format validation and local policy conformance checking with MediaConch; embedding and editing of audio metadata with BWF MetaEdit; and audiovisual quality control tool developed for analysis of digitized analog video files with QCTools, with support from FFmpeg. MediaArea is an open source software company focused on digital media analysis. We develop and support tools that aid developers in integrating digital media file investigation into their work.
