Thanks to the developer for not joining the parade of other devs who recently switched their similar apps from freeware to shareware in order to score some cash at the crApp Store.

I love this app, but I’d also love to see a couple of features implemented: 1) Ability to change font size to make it more legible; and 2) Ability to compare multiple apps. Otherwise, great app.

there are tons of freeware software on the App Store.
your pissing on the desire of the developers to make a living. Screw you. why don't you create an App yourself and give it for free and eat grass for the rest of your life.

MediaInfo is an indispensable tool for everybody working with video on the Mac. Why pay money for other apps that do the same without adding significant functionality at the core? This one here is the original thing and it's free.

Highly recommended!

The latest version of MediaInfo is 0.7.43:

MediaInfo Mac, the related Cocoa program which uses the library from MediaInfo, has been renamed to Media Inspector, is no longer free, and is only available in the Mac App Store.

People can see for themselves, and download what THEY want. There is no need to post a second direct download link. This application is available for many other platforms. You can see a complete list on this site:

I know that ;-) as I am the official packager of MediaInfo Mac OS X version. Jérôme Martinez - developer of MediaInfo - does not have a MacUpdate developer account so I have found this way to inform Mac users of new Mac OS X version of MediaInfo.

MediaInfo Droplet is only a wrapper of MediaInfo CLI while waiting for a new version of MediaInfo GUI by Jérôme Martinez with more fonctionalities (drag and drop...). Note that MediaInfo Mac simply uses MediaInfoLib designed by Jérôme.

okay but keep in mind, mediainfo mac is a much more thorough and useful app in my opinion and even if it is just a wrapped script so be it. Most free simple apps are simple command lines wrapped in a gui for easy use. If it was a pay app than something like that would be worth mentioning but since it is not I think the recommendations speak for themselves. 13 users prefer mediainfo mac over this app. I have tried both and agree with those users using mediainfo mac. just my opinion to keep in mind.

Houdini, you should stop demoting Mediainfo Mac the way you do in several comments of yours that i have seen on different sites or forums, or taking it as a "simple wrapper" around jerome's library, because it is not that simple as you may think.

If it is that "simple" as you say, why don't you write an Objective-C aplication using the Cocoa API, which is 4 way universal binary like mine, linking against Jerome's library, instead of that applescript thing ?

I honestly can't understand why you hate Mediainfo Mac so much or what problem could it cause to you, specially when im even releasing it for free.

Hi Diego,

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I DO not demote MediaInfo Mac as you can read for example in my comment on MediaInfo Mac Mac Update page on 26 february,
"MediaInfo Mac by Diego, uses Jérôme MediaInfo library in a fast and well designed GUI". I know that it is not so easy to build a cocoa app, much more difficult than in Apple Script Studio I must admit.

Diego Massanti commented on 16 May 2010

Houdini, you're right, i was asleep and pissed off when i wrote that because not only im getting a terrible amount of mails from people blaming at me cause mediainfo crashes, but on top of that, somehow MacUpdate did a rollback to a more than 1 year old version of MediaInfo Mac which is causing crashes to a lot of people.

Take this as a public apology to my comment above.
Next time i will wait to be awake before writing anything.

Sorry again man.

Do not confuse this with the excellent MediaInfo Mac:

http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/26861/mediainfo-mac

This packaging of MediaInfo feels crude. One can't drop a file on the application so there is a second "droplet" with inferior information display. One nice feature in the "full" application is changing the display between text and HTML, but there are no command keys or buttons-one is forced to mouse around. There is also a sort of graphical display that some may find useful but, for me, it made the information about the file harder to read.

Value and Stability 4

Sticking with MedaInfo Mac for now.
