This plugin shows a number of technical information about audio and video files (MP3, AVI, MKV...). A typical description has the following structure:
[<duration>][ | <video codec>[, <bitrate>][, <resolution>][, <frame rate>]][ | <audio codec>[, <bitrate>][, <sampling rate>][, <channels>]]
An actual example is:
[3:42] | h264, 278 kbps, 640x630, 29,97 fps | aac, 95 kbps, 44 khz, stereo
Fields which can't be detected are omitted. If a file contains no audio or no video, the corresponding block is omitted.
First install dependencies. For debian-based systems:
sudo apt-get install libtool-bin libfm-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev
Then compile and install:

sudo make install
