Actually, I was able to modify ffmpeg (or rather libavformat) to be
able to understand the "tmpo" atom, but I'm not sure to which "key" to
map it ("tmpo", "bpm", "BPM", "TBPM", and whether its key needs to be
remapped when conveying the metadata to another output format.

P.S.: 2 BPM seems quite slow for Count Basie's music! What do other
tool report the tag as containing?
