    For getting info about the files, Im cribbing from a dll called FFMpegCore- https://github.com/rosenbjerg/FFMpegCore , its a wrapper around FFmpeg (so you need put a copy of ffmpeg & ffprobe) in your output folder so that works correctly
  • Converting video with FFmpegCore
    2 projects | dev.to | 16 Mar 2021
    Working with multimedia is terra incognita for most of the developers since it's something that one rarely encounters while working with usual business applications. So when I was tasked to convert video for the project I'm currently working on I was expecting to deal with some sort of old poorly maintained C++ library. So FFmpegCore was a pleasant surprise since it enables working with .Net Core which is an area of my expertise.
