 I try to query the bitrate of the opus encoded audio file and it gives me
 N/A for the bitrate.

 $  ffprobe -v error -show_format -show_streams cath.webm  (see the putput
 bellow)

 I understand that this is probably due to the fact that this info is not
 written in the header. Would it be possible for ffprobe to calculate this
 data internally? I know it could be done by doing this:

 ffprobe -v error -select_streams a:0 -show_entries
 packet=size,duration_time -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 cath.webm

 And then Sum the sizes, sum the durations, and divide the summed size by
 summed duration.

 Could this enhancement be implemented in ffprobe?
