Android H.263 or H.264 file?

Is there a way to find the codec difference for a video file on Android? I need to find out if the file is encoded as H.263 or as H.264? The mime type is always video/3gp, so that's not useful.

I read something about magic cookies, but I cannot find the 开发者_运维问答magic cookie format for H.263 encoded files. Any ideas?

You can use ffmpeg for meta-data information of file. Try:

ffmpeg -i INPUT_FILE

It should display the metadata information just after the Input #0 tag.
