[2.0] Files full info

[Bobbo70]

Hi All;
I have some audio and video files and want to list them with thier full info in a listview or datagridview including the duration, bitrate and other info. Is there any dll reading the files and return the those information without having to play the file in windows media player for example to read this info?
Note: The audio files including various versions of the .wav files.

I am not to sure but you may have to actually open the file to get all that information.

ID3v1 tag reader for MP3 files
This will give you some basic information, if an ID3v1 tag is present. Unfortunately I don't believe bitrate or duration is among those. I am not sure how to obtain those reliably as I believe bitrate is only given per frame and thus it may be difficult to calculate the duration.
