Comment (by forthrin):
Well, maybe I was unclear, then.
The feature request is support for multiple files per run, ie. `find .
-type f -exec ffprobe -print_format son -show_streams {} +`, as to
increase speed when probing thousands of files.
This would mean the output would have to generate an array of probe
objects in order to connect the files and the probe data, eg.
[
{"filename": "movie1.mkv", "streams": [ ...]},
{"filename": "movie2.mkv", "streams": [ ...]},
(etc.)
]
Would this be doable? Perhaps you have a better suggestion?
