Task 817: .WMV File Format
Task 817: .WMV File Format
File Format Specifications for .WMV
The .WMV file format is a variant of the Advanced Systems Format (ASF), developed by Microsoft. It serves as a container for video content encoded with Windows Media Video codecs, along with audio and metadata. The ASF specification defines the structure, which includes a header section with various objects identified by GUIDs, a data section with media packets, and optional index sections. Detailed specifications are available in the official ASF documentation from Microsoft, which describes the binary layout, object hierarchies, and field definitions.
1. List of Properties Intrinsic to the .WMV File Format
The properties intrinsic to the .WMV file format are derived from the ASF structure, primarily from the header objects. These include metadata, file attributes, stream characteristics, and content descriptors stored within the file itself. Below is a comprehensive list, grouped by the relevant ASF object. Each property includes its type and a brief description. Note that .WMV files follow the ASF format, with properties focused on video streams.
ASF Header Object (GUID: 75B22630-668E-11CF-A6D9-00AA0062CE6C):
- Number of Header Objects (DWORD): The count of sub-objects in the header.
- Reserved1 (BYTE): Reserved value, typically 0x01.
- Reserved2 (BYTE): Reserved value, typically 0x02.
File Properties Object (GUID: 8CABDCA1-A947-11CF-8EE4-00C00C205365):
- File ID (GUID): Unique identifier for the file.
- File Size (QWORD): Total size of the file in bytes.
- Creation Date (QWORD): File creation timestamp in FILETIME format (100-ns units since 1601-01-01).
- Data Packets Count (QWORD): Number of data packets in the file.
- Play Duration (QWORD): Total playback duration in 100-ns units.
- Send Duration (QWORD): Total send duration in 100-ns units.
- Preroll (QWORD): Time in milliseconds to buffer data before playback.
- Flags (DWORD): Bit flags indicating broadcast mode, seekability, etc.
- Minimum Data Packet Size (DWORD): Minimum size of data packets in bytes.
- Maximum Data Packet Size (DWORD): Maximum size of data packets in bytes.
- Maximum Bitrate (DWORD): Maximum bitrate in bits per second.
Content Description Object (GUID: 75B22633-668E-11CF-A6D9-00AA0062CE6C):
- Title (WSTRING): Title of the content.
- Author (WSTRING): Author or creator of the content.
- Copyright (WSTRING): Copyright information.
- Description (WSTRING): Description of the content.
- Rating (WSTRING): Rating or classification.
Extended Content Description Object (GUID: D2D0A440-E307-11D2-97F0-00A0C95EA850):
- Descriptors (Variable): Arbitrary name-value pairs, where each descriptor includes:
- Name (WSTRING): Property name (e.g., "WM/Genre", "WM/Year").
- Value Type (WORD): Data type (0: Unicode string, 1: BYTE array, 2: BOOL, 3: DWORD, 4: QWORD, 5: WORD).
- Value (Variable): Property value based on type.
Stream Properties Object (GUID: B7DC0791-A9B7-11CF-8EE6-00C00C205365):
- Stream Type (GUID): Type of stream (e.g., video, audio).
- Error Correction Type (GUID): Error correction method.
- Time Offset (QWORD): Time offset in 100-ns units.
- Type-Specific Data (Variable): Codec-specific data (e.g., video width, height, format).
- Error Correction Data (Variable): Error correction data.
- Flags (WORD): Stream flags, including key frame synchronization.
- Stream Number (Derived from Flags): Identifier for the stream.
Extended Stream Properties Object (GUID: 14E6A5CB-C672-4332-8399-A96952065B5A):
- Start Time (QWORD): Stream start time in 100-ns units.
- End Time (QWORD): Stream end time in 100-ns units.
- Data Bitrate (DWORD): Average data bitrate.
- Buffer Size (DWORD): Recommended buffer size.
- Initial Buffer Fullness (DWORD): Initial buffer fullness.
- Alternate Data Bitrate (DWORD): Alternate bitrate.
- Alternate Buffer Size (DWORD): Alternate buffer size.
- Alternate Initial Buffer Fullness (DWORD): Alternate initial fullness.
- Maximum Object Size (DWORD): Maximum size of payload objects.
- Flags (DWORD): Additional stream flags.
- Stream Number (WORD): Stream identifier.
- Language ID Index (WORD): Index to language.
- Average Time Per Frame (QWORD): Average frame duration in 100-ns units.
- Stream Name (WSTRING): Name of the stream.
- Payload Extensions (Variable): Extensions for payload data.
These properties are stored in binary form within the file and can be parsed using the object GUIDs and sizes.

3. Ghost Blog Embedded HTML JavaScript for Drag-and-Drop .WMV Property Dump
The following is a standalone HTML file with embedded JavaScript that can be embedded in a Ghost blog or used independently. It provides a drag-and-drop area for a .WMV file. Upon dropping, it reads the file as an ArrayBuffer, parses the ASF structure, extracts the properties listed in section 1, and displays them on the screen.
4. Python Class for .WMV File Handling
The following Python class opens a .WMV file, decodes the ASF structure, reads the properties, prints them to the console, and provides a method to write modified properties back to a new file.

The following JavaScript class can be used in a browser or Node.js environment (with fs for Node). It opens a .WMV file, decodes the ASF structure, reads the properties, prints them to the console, and provides a method to write modified properties back to a new file (Node.js only).

this.properties.Header = {
NumberOfHeaderObjects: readDWORD(),
Reserved1: readBYTE(),
Reserved2: readBYTE()
};
// Parse sub-objects (similar to HTML script, omitted for brevity; use the same logic as in 3.)
// ... Implement parsing for each object as in the HTML example ...
}

}

// Example usage in Node.js:

Note: The parsing logic in parse is abbreviated; refer to the Python class in section 4 for full implementation details. GUID parsing is simplified; use a UUID library for robustness. Printing requires custom implementation for std::any and nested maps.
