tidymedia: Media File Preprocessing and Metadata for the 'tidyverse'
Batch preprocessing and metadata extraction for audio, video and image files, built on the command-line programs 'FFmpeg' (<https://ffmpeg.org/>) and 'MediaInfo' (<https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo>). Trim, crop, scale, convert and standardize files one at a time or across a whole directory, and read container and stream metadata back as tibbles for use with the 'tidyverse'.
