Search files by bitrate

That will be the total of the audio and video -- but video bitrate usually dominates. If you enable the Bit Rate audio field you can subtract out the audio bitrate yourself.

That's close to what I need. Problem is, I'm finding it a little inaccurate. Some files are listed with a much too high bitrate. It's easy to pick out some of them. Looking at them with MediaInfo , I can tell that for files with a variable bitrate, Windows is listing the maximum bitrate.

For example, I have one wmv file that has an overall bitrate of Kbps and a maximum overall bitrate of Windows lists the total bitate for that file as Many other files are harder to spot. I'd rather not spend time weeding out these files if I don't have to. Contact Us VideoHelp Top. All times are GMT The time now is All rights reserved. Latest tool updates.

Because sometimes you just don't need a copy of a song or album at kbps or V0. This is particularly true when it comes to spoken word material such as stand-up comedy. Unlike with music, kbps provides plenty of fidelity for speech and kbps rips are just overkill and ultimately a waste of hard drive space. Having a "bitrateis" filter would be a huge time saver when sifting through results.

For the bit rate, you would need some more scripting, however. You can probably use that to get to the audio bit rate and filter for that. In general, if you want to do something you know is natively supported by a built-in Windows component, the fastest route is likely to be COM.

Stupendous Emperor! I realized that I had some 56K MP3s that I should replace with better quality heh, they were ripped when drives were measured by hundreds of megs, not gigs, saving space was what mattered!

And I thought this morning that I should probably see if there's a way to do that under Powershell I used to have a program called EDIR that would get that info from files, but that was back in the days of Win Talk about getting lucky! I could also figure out to change this so I can go through and pick all the wallpapers that are , or thereabouts, if nothing else just to categorize them.

Sounds like a plan to me in my ha! How are we doing? Please help us improve Stack Overflow. Take our short survey. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group. Create a free Team What is Teams? Collectives on Stack Overflow. Learn more.
