[LAD] MediaInfo API

[Alfs Kurmis]

Hi Experts.

I wanna gotta some info about my (mainly) sound files.
Samplerate, Bitrate, VBR, Channels, Bits, Samples, Tag info ...
and put em all in my C program variables or structure.

Seems that MediaInfo support many formats, and it is really good.

Can somebody gimme examples how to access sound/media files with MediaInfo API ?

What exact  #include's must be used ?
How to compile ?
Evtl. what include and lib dirs should be specified in GCC command line ? 
gcc  -I...  -L...  -lmediainfo

What is difference between
/usr/include/MediaInfo  and
/usr/include/MediaInfoDLL ??

If i wanna use MediaInfo API, but not MediaInfo itself, is it enough when i 
emerge  media-libs/libmediainfo 
or anyway i must emerge  media-libs/libmediainfo  AND media-video/mediainfo ?
