I tried using this property: Mp4HintDirectory.TAG_AVERAGE_BITRATE

But the info seems to be completely wrong..

Why do you think it's wrong? What value do you get, and what do you expect? Can you provide a sample file that reproduces this problem?

It should be noted that it's not uncommon for metadata to be wrong - which is part of the reason why both MediaInfo and FFmpeg analyzes/probes part of the stream itself. Metadata-extractor merely reads the metadata - as is its defined task.
