Tiny module, using ffprobe, to collect metadata about media files.

## Install

```bash

npm install media-file-probe

```

## Usage

```javascript

var mediaprober = require('media-file-probe')();

mediaprober.probe('/Users/artheus/somemediafile.mov').on('metadata', function(data){

	// Now you can read the media file data from the data variable

});

```

## CLI

There is also a cli tool included that simply does what is in the example usage above and then prints the metadata.

You can use it like this

```bash

npm install -g media-file-probe

media-file-probe /Users/artheus/somemediafile.mov

{

	... Lots o' metadata ...

}

```
