Bug ID: 55941
Summary: Expose media metadata consistently through
query=imageinfo and/or query=videoinfo
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
URL: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&t
itles=File:Folgers.ogv&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url|size|
mediatype|metadata&format=json
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: TimedMediaHandler

Mobile Platform: ---
Currently there doesn't seem to be any consistent way to get the duration of a
timed media file (such as video or audio), either through core query=imageinfo
or TimedMediaHandler's modified query=videoinfo.
It looks like I can get the duration out of the metadata fields, but these are
different for each format...
WebM has metadata entry 'playtime_seconds':
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=File:Fjordsteam.webm&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url|size|mediatype|metadata&format=json
But Ogg has metadata entry 'length':
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=File:Folgers.ogv&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url|size|mediatype|metadata&format=json
For now I can hardcode these two checks, but I'd much prefer a standard
property on imageinfo.
