Overview

To inspect a video or audio file, initialize an Inspector object.

file = RVideo::Inspector.new(options_hash)

Inspector accepts three options: file, raw_response, and ffmpeg_binary. Either raw_response or file is required; ffmpeg binary is optional.

:file is a path to a file to be inspected.

:raw_response is the full output of “ffmpeg -i [file]”. If the :raw_response option is used, RVideo will not actually inspect a file; it will simply parse the provided response. This is useful if your application has already collected the ffmpeg -i response, and you don’t want to call it again.

:ffmpeg_binary is an optional argument that specifies the path to the ffmpeg binary to be used. If a path is not explicitly declared, RVideo will assume that ffmpeg exists in the Unix path. Type “which ffmpeg” to check if ffmpeg is installed and exists in your operating system’s path.
