so I do this in my script:
import json
info = json.loads(get_info())
print info
Which outputs:
richard@richard-desktop:~/projects/hello-python$ python main.py

How can I access streams or format and then properties inside them? For example how to get codec_long_name from the second stream or how to get duration from format?
I tried:
print info[0]
Which outputs:
richard@richard-desktop:~/projects/hello-python$ python main.py
{
If I do print repr(info), I get:
richard@richard-desktop:~/projects/hello-python$ python main.py

The way I am getting the JSON string is bu running this command:
ffmpeg_command = "ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_format -show_streams %s" % self.absolute_path
return subprocess.check_output(ffmpeg_command, shell=True)
The JSON was encoded twice, and the result of json.loads is a string. Strings in python are sequences thus the first character is a {.
Decode the item again:
info = json.loads(json.loads(get_info()))
Now your main.py output should look like:
>>> result = json.loads(output)
>>> print result
{u'streams': [{u'pix_fmt': u'yuv422p', u'index': 0, u'start_time': u'0.945411', u'codec_tag': u'0x0000', u'sample_aspect_ratio': u'1:1', u'level': 2, u'r_frame_rate': u'24000/1001', u'id': u'0x1e0', u'time_base': u'1/90000', u'codec_tag_string': u'[0][0][0][0]', u'codec_type': u'video', u'has_b_frames': 1, u'width': 1920, u'codec_long_name': u'MPEG-2 video', u'display_aspect_ratio': u'16:9', u'codec_name': u'mpeg2video', u'timecode': u'00:59:59:00', u'height': 1080, u'codec_time_base': u'1001/48000', u'avg_frame_rate': u'10000/417'}, {u'index': 1, u'sample_fmt': u's32', u'codec_tag': u'0x0000', u'bits_per_sample': 0, u'r_frame_rate': u'0/0', u'start_time': u'0.945411', u'time_base': u'1/90000', u'codec_tag_string': u'[0][0][0][0]', u'codec_type': u'audio', u'channels': 2, u'duration': u'600.595000', u'codec_long_name': u'PCM signed 20|24-bit big-endian', u'codec_name': u'pcm_dvd', u'id': u'0xa0', u'sample_rate': u'48000', u'codec_time_base': u'1/48000', u'avg_frame_rate': u'0/0'}], u'format': {u'nb_streams': 2, u'start_time': u'0.945411', u'format_long_name': u'MPEG-PS format', u'format_name': u'mpeg', u'filename': u'/home/richard/projects/hello-python/tests/test_1.mpg', u'bit_rate': u'53723272', u'duration': u'600.595000', u'size': u'4033241092'}}
and you can access the streams and format parameters by name:
>>> result['streams']

Pro tip: use the pprint module to format python structures nicely:
>>> from pprint import pprint
>>> print pprint(result)
>>> pprint(result)

Try
from StringIO import StringIO
io = StringIO(get_info())
json.load(io)
To print codec_long_name and duration from the second stream do the following:
details = subprocess.check_output(["C:/FFmpeg/bin/ffprobe.exe",
"-loglevel", "quiet", "-print_format", "json", "-show_streams",
file_path])
info = json.loads(details)
print info['streams'][1]['codec_long_name'], info['streams'][1]['duration']
