Use MediaInfo as alternative to GetID3 library
MediaInfo (http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en) can be used to retrieve tags from audio and video files. We currently use the GetID3 library for this purpose but is not frequently updated and only has limited support for some filetypes that we use.
MediaInfo has a CLI version and is available for most platforms. It can be called as an external app to return the required file details. This would be added as an optional alternative to the GetID3 library.
