Media file data

Hi All,

Is there an easy (or not easy) way to get media files' information
like: video dimension, length, rate...?
When using windows XP, just resting my mouse pointer on a media file,
gives me a tooltip with this data, so maybe there's an API to read
these?

btw: Using C#.

Thanks,
Danny
