Can we retrieve the resolution of a loaded movie file ?

Depending on the movie file, I’d need to do some calculations and I’d need to retrieve the resolution of the loaded file.

Have you tried with the info chop?

thanks @FaustoB
The trick was (just) to use a Null TOP after the Movie File In TOP … and Info CHOP bound to it as if you bind the Info CHOP to Movie File In TOP… you don’t get it.

I forgot to write the word then

IF you bind…
THEN you can’t get resolution values

In Python you can write: op(‘moviefilein1’).width

(reminder for me : EVERYTHING CAN BE GET (and SET) with PYTHON HERE)
