-------------------------------------------------------------
[~chrismattmann], thank you for adding this capability. The aliasing mod is
important.
More broadly, do you happen to know what file formats/metadata keys we'd get
with the EXIFTool that we aren't currently pulling?
It looks like you've chosen to trigger it for only the following now:
{noformat}
video/avi
video/mpeg
video/x-msvideo
video/mp4
{noformat}
[~rgauss], clearly you saw the same need... Do you have any documentation on
the benefits over what we had? Thank you!

> media formats, in particular video, audio and images:
> http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
> Now that ExternalParser works, it's fairly easy to support this.

> {noformat}
> On CentOS Linux, you can do:
> {noformat}
> $ sudo yum install perl-Image-ExifTool
