Start thinking from the other side: You want to define a class (be it Python, C#, Java, TypeScript or whatever) which corresponds to the FFprobe format output in a way that you can work with it efficiently in that application and then you serialize that class - that's how the output should be.
For the representation of bitfields in the output, there are multiple ways.
One way is like it's done for disposition:
JSON:
"disposition": {
"default": 0,
"dub": 0,
"original": 0,
"comment": 0,
"lyrics": 0,
"karaoke": 0,
"forced": 0,
"hearing_impaired": 0,
"visual_impaired": 0,
"clean_effects": 0,
"attached_pic": 0,
"timed_thumbnails": 0,
"non_diegetic": 0,
"captions": 0,
"descriptions": 0,
"metadata": 0,
"dependent": 0,
"still_image": 0,
"multilayer": 0
},
another way would be a list of predefined (enum) values:
which would look as follows in JSON:
"disposition": ["original", "dub"],
In an xml schema, the latter can be defined like this:
<xs:element name="Flags">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element name="disposition">
<xs:simpleType>
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:enumeration value="original"/>
<xs:enumeration value="dub"/>
<xs:enumeration value="lyrics"/>
<!-- ... -->
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
Then the XML would look like this:
<MyElement>
<disposition>
<dispositionvalue>original</dispositionvalue>
<dispositionvalue>dub</dispositionvalue>
</disposition>
</MyElement>
> That seems like too much bloat for CLI usage.
Whether it's "bloat" or not only depends on the output format.
In the default or flat format this might probably condense to a
disposition: original,dub
output (not 100% sure, but it will be short in any case).
