Thank you. I know someone announced a project like this, but I
couldn't remember who and what sf name (and the sf search engine
sucks)

No problem, an extra project is as good as a subproject.

OK, even when it is an extra project, we should discuss the api
here. I was thinking about:
1. Get all the info possible. This includes
- avi tags (you can do it right now)
- check for subtitle files and give the information about the
languages in there
- image exif information
- image bins support
- mp3/ogg id tag parsing
- DVD title/chapter/language parsing
- VCD title parsing
- CDDB support for audio cds
2. Caching the data
- Cache data with pickle to disc. This could be done with one file
for each directory. Discs could get an extra cache file, some for
CDDB infos. Inserting a DVD again could give you all the infos by
just loading the media-id.
- Rememeber mtime for files and disc id for discs to check if you
have to reread the file or take the cache. Make it possible to
set ROM drives to find the cache entry when you insert a mp3 disc
in a different drive with a different mount point
- A script to cache a directory. You could run that for all Freevo
dirs in a cron to speed up Freevo

I would love to use that lib. I'm working on the DVD parser right
now. But it depends on libdvdread, I can't think of a way without it.
Small bugreport: your lib always reports 2 audiochannels. Do you mean
2 as in stereo or two as in two audio streams to select from? And for
mpg you lib report 4096x4096 as widthxheight -- nope, that's wrong.
