NAME

       Video::Info::FOO - what is it useful for?  an example list:

        -video codec
        -audio codec
        -frame height
        -frame width
        -frame count

       and more!

SYNOPSIS

         use Video::Info::FOO;

         my $video;

         $video->vcodec;                         #video codec
         $video->acodec;                         #audio codec
         ...

DESCRIPTION

       What does the module do?  What are it's limitations?  Is it built on top of other code?
       If so, what are the details and where can I get it?

   METHODS
       Video::Info::FOO has one constructor, new().  It is called as:
         -file       => $filename,   #your RIFF file
         -headersize => $headersize  #optional RIFF header size to parse Returns a
       Video::Info::FOO object if the file was opened successfully.

       The Video::Info::FOO object to parses the file by method probe().  This does a series of
       sysread()s on the file to figure out what the properties are.

       Now, call one (or more) of these methods to get the low-down on your file:

BUGS

       Audio codec name mapping is incomplete.  If you know the name that corresponds to an audio
       codec ID that I don't, tell the Video::Info::Magic author, Allen Day <allenday@ucla.edu>.
