Analyze This: Tools for Media File Analysis

This is just a short list of tools that I have found....if you know of other tools to breakdown non-standard file types, let me know.

----------------------------------------------------

Shockwave Flash Object (SWF)

SWF Tools is a collection of SWF manipulation and creation utilities written by Rainer Böhme and Matthias Kramm. It is released under the GPL. Windows and Linux binaries are available.

JSwiff is an open source (GPL), pure Java framework for Macromedia Flash file creation and manipulation. The use of Java makes this tool cross-platform.

Flare is a free ActionScript decompiler. It decompiles SWFs produced by Macromedia Flash, including Flash MX 2004 and Flash 8. Windows, Mac OS X and Linux versions are available.

Java Class Object

Jad is a Java decompiler that reads one or more Java class files and converts them into Java source files which can be compiled again. Jad is a 100% pure C++ program and it generally works several times faster than decompilers written in Java.

JReverse Pro is a Java Decompiler / Disassembler written entirely in Java. This reverse engineering utility is issued under the GNU GPL. The ultimate objective of this project is to provide a decompiler that generates a Java object-based structure that can be programmatically inspected using a specific API.

.NET Binaries

Reflector is the class browser, explorer, analyzer and documentation viewer for .NET. Reflector allows to easily view, navigate, search, decompile and analyze .NET assemblies in C#, Visual Basic and IL.
