Tips for the best results
For very large videos (>500MB), use a desktop tool like HandBrake - browser-based tools work great up to ~200MB but slow down beyond that.

What is video metadata and why does it matter?
Every video file carries hidden metadata - camera or device info, software version, dates, GPS coordinates, copyright fields, and codec details. Most of it is harmless, but coordinates and device identifiers can reveal where a file was created or who created it. Viewing this metadata lets you audit your own files before sharing, or verify a file's authenticity.
What metadata fields does the Video Metadata Viewer read?
It parses standard video headers - EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ID3, and container-level tags as applicable - and shows every named field with its decoded value. Binary blobs are shown as hex previews. Unknown vendor-specific tags are listed by their raw tag ID so nothing is hidden from you.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
Files run entirely in your browser - the tool reads the metadata locally and the content never leaves your device. There's no upload step at all, which means even private or sensitive files are safe to inspect.
Can I copy or export the metadata?
Yes. Each row in the table has a copy button, and a download link gives you the full metadata as a JSON file you can paste into a report or version-control. The JSON preserves the original keys exactly so it's easy to diff between two versions of the same file.
Is the Video Metadata Viewer free?
Completely free, no signup required, no per-file cap. Inspect as many files as you like, including very large ones - the parser only reads headers, not the full payload, so a 10-GB video opens just as fast as a 10-KB image.
