//! Example that requests the underlying library's raw JSON output instead
//! of a structured `MediaInfo` value.
//!
//! Setting `ParseOptions::output("JSON")` makes the parse call return the
//! verbatim text payload the library would emit on its own command line,
//! ready to pipe into another tool, write to disk, or send over the wire.
//! Other accepted output values include `""` (or `"text"`) for the default
//! human-readable text report, `"XML"` / `"OLDXML"` for XML, and
//! `%`-delimited templates such as `"General;%FileSize%"`.
//!
//! Run with:
//!
//! ```text
//! cargo run --example parse_raw_output -- tests/data/sample.mp4
//! ```
