Is there a code help to extract head information and target frames from flv file using C#?

Maybe this article can help you. It show how to read flv files and it's meta information in c#.

Basically, you have to open a binary file stream and read the first part of the file.

You have than to interpret bytes you read according to Adobe flv format specification. Anyway, the article has some code sample showing you how to read all header information.

Library for FLV/F4V conversation in C# .NET?

One of those libraries will probably help you.

While trying to use the accepted answer code I ended up doing this

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
