If you want to view media information (like bitrate, codec, and screen resolution) in VLC for Android, then all you do is click on the options button (⋮) and then select the Information option. It is as simple as that. On the screen that follows, you get to see the cover art or thumbnail view on top with the file name on it. Below it is the location of the file in your Android phone or tablet along with the length and file size. After that, you get the video and audio track information (if both these channels are present). If it is just an audio file, it displays the audio track information only. There’s also a simple trick to view resolution (width x height) of any video file with the VLC app.
Here are the detailed steps to view media information in VLC including a simple way to view media resolution:

For now, we cannot see the frame rate information like in MX Player. The media information that is displayed is minimal. It does lack the date and the resolution is not displayed on the same screen. It is shown besides the file in the browser.
