MP4 Property Handler #95

Closed Coolie2 closed 3 months ago

Coolie2 commented 4 months ago

I've found the property handling functionality of Icaros to be extremely useful, avoiding the need to use MediaInfo to view simple encoding properties. I was wondering if there's a reason why Icaros doesn't replace the property handler of mp4 files (MF MPEG-4 Property Handler by default), as such functionality would lessen the need to use MediaInfo even further.

Hi Coolie2, So happy to hear you find Icaros useful. The reason why MP4 properties is not enabled by default in Icaros, is because Icaros does not offer editing of properties, while the native Windows property handler does. So it's up to the individual user to determine which property handler they find most useful for their use case. The default which allows property editing or Icaros' property handler which provides more information about the file.
