  file,
  template = c("brief", "extended", "custom"),
  templatefile = NULL
)

file	A string containing the file path to a media file.
template	A string containing the template to be applied. Two templates are built into the package: "brief" and "extended". Alternatively, "custom" can be used to apply a new template file specified in templatefile.
templatefile	Either a string containing the file path to a MediaInfo template (.txt) file formatted to output comma-separated values (requires template to be set to "custom") or NULL (default = NULL).

Value
