The issue that I have at hand is that I have some streams that are showing 5
Mbps for bitrate, but the engineers writing some code say that they are
encoding at 1024 kbps. The 5 Mbps is being reported from metadata, but the
encoding engine is just passing along an arbitrary metadata file with the
stream, which is incorrect.
I use ffprobe thinking that it is actually probing the media stream. Decoding a
segment and reporting the metrics that it finds.
I'd like to get the actual decoded data details. Specially bitrate.
Thanks for your help.

That depends on what you mean with "stream info".
Some of the printed information is metadata (like "id", some information
(like resolution and pix_fmt) needs decoding.
