How can I see video resolution on Mac?

[Pangalactic]

Subject, I want to be able to easily see the video file resolutions, but they are neither shown in finder nor in the get info view, how do I do it?

Depends on the source of the video, I think. Some of mine show under the "More Info" section, and some don't. Playing them and getting the info from the Player is probably the best way.

Take a look at Media Info.

I would recommend looking into ffprobe here. It's a command line tool but incredibly powerful and can handle all sorts of video and audio files:

As MacOS do not support .mkv files in the base system (like mp4 and so on) you will not see resolution in the info box. If you open the video in a videoplayer (like vlc, mplayer) you will be able to look in at the info inside the app for the resolution.

after I installed qlvideo:

may not work for everything, though. And it uses spotlight, so it needs to newly index the file and record the"Dimensions" before they can be displayed in the finder. (It's a one time hit, though)
