How do I use ffprobe in Terminal?

Question

When I use ffmpeg I use it like this:

./ffmpeg -ss 00:30:00 -i inputvideo.mp4 -t 00:00:20 -c:v copy -c:a copy outputvideo.mp4

So how to I use ffprobe? I've tried this but I can't get it to work:

./ffmpeg ffprobe -v error -show_frames inputvideo.mp4

Answer 1

ffprobe is a separate program from ffmpeg, not an ffmpeg parameter.
