FLV metadata FAQs
What can I see in a FLV file?
Inspect onMetaData entries, cue points, custom tags, and codec/bitrate/dimension details from FLV files—nothing is changed or re-encoded.
Do you change or recompress my FLV file?
No. The viewer only reads metadata from your FLV file and shows it back—streams, pixels, and content stay untouched.
What if my FLV file has little or no metadata?
Some FLV files ship with minimal fields. We show everything present—if a tag is missing (like GPS or author), there simply isn't any data to display.
Can I verify attachments or previews in a FLV?
Yes. If the FLV contains embedded previews, cover art, fonts, or thumbnails, we surface those entries so you know what ships with the file.
Can I copy the FLV metadata for documentation?
You can copy the on-screen results to include in tickets, audits, or delivery notes without modifying the original FLV.
