ffprobe is a powerful tool but raw outputs are hard to parse and reuse. This Skill provides a focused wrapper to extract container, streams, and metadata in structured formats for automation and QA.
Run the probe script to generate a human-readable summary or JSON metadata for a file provided as input.

Extract video metadata using ffprobe by running a Python wrapper that outputs structured JSON, enabling seamless parsing for downstream automation and QA pipelines. It captures container format, duration, size, and per-stream codec details.
Detect HDR flags in a media file by probing its stream metadata to identify HDR classification and specific color attributes. The wrapper inspects per-stream details to report HDR status accurately for video inspection workflows.
Query specific ffprobe fields using a simple dotted path syntax provided by the wrapper, preventing the need to parse full JSON output. This allows targeted extraction of container and stream metadata values.
Validate media file metadata before transcoding by running a probe script to generate a human-readable summary or JSON output. This verifies format, resolution, bitrate, and codec parameters to ensure downstream transcoding stability.
Extract keyframes from a video file for media analysis by utilizing the wrapper's keyframe extraction feature. This identifies specific frame timestamps within the stream, supporting cataloging and detailed media inspection tasks.
You need Python to generate catalog entries for a media library because the wrapper relies on a Python script to process ffprobe data into structured JSON. This structured output directly supports catalog entry generation and library organization.
