I do not specifically exclude that option. However mplayer
does not read avi info tags. It does not read exif, iptc
and other tags from images and it starts very slow which
makes it useless for retrieving metadata while browsing
a directory.
My framework for metadata retrieval is flexible in the way
of how they are retrieved. However I found python very
efficient in parsing binary data. IE it was much more simple
to parse Metainfo out of OGG files than to integrate
libvorbis in python. I retrieve the complete ogg metainfo
in about 30 lines of python.
