CodecMetadata
Codec-specific parameters parsed from the video essence headers. This information provides detailed technical specifications about how the video was encoded, including profile settings, resolution details, and color space information that can help you understand the source video characteristics and make informed encoding decisions.

Properties
The chroma subsampling format used in the video encoding, such as "4:2:0" or "4:4:4". This describes how color information is sampled relative to brightness information. Different subsampling ratios affect video quality and file size, with "4:4:4" providing the highest color fidelity and "4:2:0" being most common for standard video.
The frame rate of the video or audio track, expressed as a fraction with numerator and denominator values.
The color space primaries of the video track, defining the red, green, and blue color coordinates used for the video. This information helps ensure accurate color reproduction during playback and transcoding.
The color space matrix coefficients of the video track, defining how RGB color values are converted to and from YUV color space. This affects color accuracy during encoding and decoding processes.
The color space transfer characteristics of the video track, defining the relationship between linear light values and the encoded signal values. This affects brightness and contrast reproduction.
