# file identification script

# manual usage:
#   mpv_identify.sh foo.mkv
#
# sh/dash/ksh/bash usage:
#   . mpv_identify.sh FOO_ foo.mkv
# will fill properties into variables like FOO_length
#
# zsh usage:
#   mpv_identify() { emulate -L sh; . mpv_identify.sh "$@"; }
#   mpv_identify FOO_ foo.mkv
# will fill properties into variables like FOO_length
#
# When multiple files were specified, their info will be put into FOO_* for the
# first file, FOO_1_* for the second file, FOO_2_* for the third file, etc.

Usage 1 (for humans only): $0 filename.mkv
will print all property values.
Note that this output really shouldn't be parsed, as the
format is subject to change.

Usage 2 (for use by scripts): see top of this file

NOTE: for mkv with ordered chapters, this may
not always identify the specified file, but the
file providing the first chapter. Specify
--no-ordered-chapters to prevent this.
