I sent an email to the list not time ago regarding this issue. I was asking for a metadata standard with at least the most basic properties mandatory. Search the list for "flv metadata" it should appear (I've been trying to access the archive to give you a direct link, but doesn't work for me, I'm afraid).
I haven't found any better way of solving the problem, to be honest. So I'm all ears.
