This looks useful... (metadata tool)

For us Metadata miners.

http://www.dvmp.co.uk/

Plays files captured from an AVCHD, HDV or DV camcorder and displays the date and time stamp that was stored in the hidden metadata area of the file when the recording was originally shot. It also displays the timecode, user bits, and exposure settings such as iris/aperture, shutter speed, gain, image stabilizer and white balance - all displayed with frame accuracy as you play or frame-step through your AVCHD, HDV or DV file.
The tools allow you to burn-in the recording date and time (also known as datacode/datecode) into the visible area of each frame. You can also choose to burn-in timecode, user-bits, iris, shutter speed, etc. Other tools include a powerful file splitter which splits your DV AVI file into scenes using a range of triggers, and a metadata editor which can modify timecode, DV date stamp and other metadata.

Thanks for the information. I tried the demo but it doesn't show shutter ,IRIS etc. Are you able to see these meta data in the full version? Can you please attach a screen shot of what it can show in case of AVCHD (.MPEG) files.

Thanks for your help

This program sounded promising, but seems to be grossly misleading for AVCHD. Almost all of the features are specific to DV (and have been available in free tools for quite some time). The only tool that sounds useful is the metadata export... however, there really isn't any metadata displayed other than timecode for AVCHD, so I don't see the benefit in paying for that feature.

I still have yet to see any evidence that AVCHD provides any realtime information other than the frame offset. All I've found is that the timecode start point and other data is stored once per clip... and most programs can't even read that at this point.

There isn't. If it were, it would be embedded in the transport stream, and the transport stream PMT only lists two elementary streams, one for AVC and one for AC-3.

To make this clear once again: There is NO per frame metadata.
