I want to see the properties of the file

  • 772

I am using Files. When viewing attributes in a file, I want to see the properties corresponding to Type. Do you have an Addon to view properties in Files?

I do not want to use Files with less functionality. Do you have any other programs?

I can see the image only properties. Video, mp3 can not see the property.

  1. exiftool is good for pulling out metadata

    Example:

    sudo apt install libimage-exiftool-perl
exiftool myfile.mp4 | grep -i type

    There's also the file command

    file myfile.mp4
