[MPlayer-users] information about video headers needed

[phoen][x]

hoy

i know that i might be in the wrong place. but i'm so desperate that i
have to try to find help on this very mailing list:

i want to write a program which detects the movie resolution and some
other informations of my video files. (like fourcc in avi). avi just
works great - i found the specs after 5 mins of browsing, but i cant
find informations about the mpeg header anywhere on the net. (i
performed lotsa google searches, but nothing was useful)

i also tried to find the appropriate lines of code in mplayer, but i'm
not a master of c so i didnt get any far.

well, lets hope that somebody knows a link (or the header specifications
by heart).

so long
