void MediaInfoLib::MediaInfo::Close | ( |  | ) |

Close a file.

Count of streams of a stream kind (StreamNumber not filled), or count of piece of information in this stream.

Parameters

  StreamKind | Kind of stream (general, video, audio...)
  StreamNumber | Stream number in this kind of stream (first, second...)

Returns
  The count of fields for this stream kind / stream number if stream number is provided, else the count of streams for this stream kind
