Video Metadata Viewer
View a video file's duration, dimensions, aspect ratio, and estimated bitrate instantly. Runs entirely in your browser.
🔒 This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to a server.
How it works
- Choose a video file.
- Its duration, dimensions, and file details are read once the browser loads its metadata.
- Bitrate is estimated from file size and duration.
FAQ
Why is the bitrate "estimated"?
It's calculated from file size divided by duration, which reflects the overall average — it's not read from an exact per-stream bitrate field in the file, since browsers don't expose that directly.
Can this show the exact codec used?
Not currently — browsers don't expose codec details through the standard <video> element API used here.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No — the file is read locally, and only its metadata is displayed.

File properties dialogs vary by OS and don't always show duration or dimensions clearly. Video Metadata Viewer gives a consistent summary in your browser.
