A new version of MediaInfo Portable has been released. MediaInfo is a convenient unified display of the most relevant technical and tag data for video and audio files. It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format so it can easily integrate with the PortableApps.com Platform. And it's open source and completely free.
Update automatically or install from the portable app store in the PortableApps.com Platform.
Features
MediaInfo displays format, profile, name, duration, bitrate, frame rate, codec, tags and lots more from most popular audio and video file formats. The details can be displayed or exported to CSV and HTML files.
PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com Format
MediaInfo Portable is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings.

It keeps asking for update
Even after I update this application, it keeps showing in auto update and asking to download and install again.
Hm, it should not. By
Hm, it should not. By autoupdate, do you mean that it is listed in the updater window of the platform (the PortableApps menu) or is there an update notice when you launch MediaInfo itself?
How do you lauch it? If you at some point activated the explorer extensions or linked to MediaInfo.exe itself instead of MediaInfoPortable.exe, you bypass the launcher and the mechanics to adjust the version number in the configuration-file. That may result in such a problem.

Hi, it is listed in the updater window of the platform, when I run the platform or click the "check for updates" menu iten on platform.
BTW, thanks for your concern.
Bug, Fixed
There was an issue with the update due to the NSIS version comparison component thinking 23.3.0.0 was greater than 23.03.0.0. I adjusted the package version and it should be working correctly now.
Just out of curiousity - at
Just out of curiousity - at what point did the version component get the 23.3.0.0 for comparision? I cannot find it anywhere, just 23.03.0.0. The last PackageVersion was 22.12.0.0, according to my records.
Database
In the updater database. It's standard to not using leading zeros in a package version of EXE files as compilers/Windows will strip them out. If you hover over the MediaInfoPortable_23.03.paf.exe installer, you'll see Windows will report it as 23.3.0.0.
Good to know.
Good to know.
So for the next package versions, I strip the leading zero.
That would result in a difference to the display version, though.
It just did not occur the last years. MediaInfo is using this numbering scheme for five years now and I never encountered such a problem.
Display vs Package
You only strip it from the package version as compilers/Windows does the same. So this release would have a DisplayVersion of 23.03 (installer naming, displayed on page in the site, displayed in updater, displayed in platform) and a PackageVersion of 23.3.0.0 (used by updater/app store, displayed by Windows in installer EXE details).
Thanks a lot
