Video Metadata Viewer (Resolution, Bitrate, FPS)

What this tool tells you

Drop in any video your browser can open and you get the essentials in a second: resolution, aspect ratio, duration, file size, the average bitrate across video and audio, and a measured frame rate. It is the quick check you need before uploading to a platform with limits, before choosing export settings, or when a client sends a file and you want to know what you are dealing with.

How the numbers are worked out

Resolution and duration come straight from the browser's video decoder. The average bitrate is the file size in bits divided by the duration, so it includes audio and container overhead. That makes it ideal for estimating streaming bandwidth or storage, and you can turn it into sizes for other lengths with our bitrate calculator. The frame rate is measured by playing a short stretch and counting decoded frames, which gives a reliable estimate for most files.

When you need more detail

For codec profiles, colour information, HDR metadata or per-track bitrates, a desktop tool such as MediaInfo or ffprobe goes deeper. For most everyday questions, such as "is this 1080p?", "why is this file so large?" or "is it 30 or 60 frames per second?", this viewer answers in seconds. If the file is too large for your needs, the video compressor and our guide on compressing without losing quality are the next step.
