Media Analyst 2.0

Media Analyst


Did you spend many hours for the download of a video or a music file and now you find out that your computer does not play it?

You will find a good support in these (and other) cases with the Media Analyst software, a tool for the detailed analysis of video clips and audio files of nearly all formats, designs and tastes. Though this does not yet make your computer an all-you-can-eat-device, it will provide a large amount of information, e.g. on how the problematic video is composed. And on top you get the possibility to outsmart your DVD-player by simply changing the identification of a clip, from Xvid to DivX for example.

Change FourCC and outsmart the player


As special extra the program allows to change the FourCC for avi video files. FourCC is a small structure within the AVI-video file, which identifies the video codec that was used for creation. Hardware players use this identification to decide whether a video is supported or not. Many DivX/DVD-players for instance are calibrated to search for DIV3, DIV4, DX50 or DIVX identifications and to reject other videos - which of course not always suits the consumer.

Finally, DivX is a normal MPEG-4-codec and special DivX-players are compatible to videos, which were coded with other codecs of the same design, as long as the respective profiles are kept. This applies e.g. for HDX4 and Xvid, but also for other MPEG-4-codecs. In many cases where a player rejects a video it is sufficient to simply change the identification and outsmart the device.
