Ah, I didn't know about qt_tools. Does the source build on Linux? AtomicParsley (which does build on Linux, I have built mine) apparently allows to set arbitrary atoms. Check its "--uuid-help" page.[1] HTH, Moritz [1] Short extract: Setting a user-defined 'uuid' private extention tags will appear in "moov.udta.meta"). These will only be read by AtomicParsley & can be set irrespective of file branding. The form of uuid that AP is a v5 uuid generated from a sha1 hash of an atom name in an 'AtomicParsley.sf.net' namespace. [...] Define & set an arbitrary atom with a text data or embed a file: --meta-uuid There are two forms: 1 for text & 1 for file operations setting text form: --meta-uuid (atom) "text" (str) "atom" = 4 character atom name of your choice str is whatever text you want to set file embedding form: --meta-uuid (atom) "file" (/path) [description="foo"] [mime-type="foo/moof"] "atom" = 4 character atom name of your choice /path = path to the file that will be embedded* description = optional description of the file default is "[none]" mime-type = optional mime type for the file default is "none" Note: no auto-disocevery of mime type if you know/want it: supply it. *Note: a file extension (/path/file.ext) is required _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
