You'd better stay away from FFmpeg - it transforms the image file to a
video stream; this is not what you want!
Use a dedicated MP4/M4A tagger, like AtomicParsley, MP4Box etc.

If on Windows and prefer a GUI, Peter's suggestion works fine!
If you are not trimming/deleting your get_iplayer history file and
you've managed to get AP properly installed now, there's a good chance
your history file contains entries for those tagless files. E.g. if your
tagless mp4/m4a file corresponds to pid=xxxxxxxx,
you can place it inside GiP's download folder (where it was initially
created) and then "tag from history":
get_iplayer --history pid:xxxxxxxx --tag-only
This should work if
1. There's only ONE instance of xxxxxxxx inside history; I have found
that if I re-downloaded via --force and a second instance was created,
the above command fails (@ dinkypumpkin: possible bug?).
2. The file was not downloaded before the Oct 2014 BBC changes (death of
XML feeds). In that case, history points to a non-existing thumbnail
resource.

Hi Vangelis,
Many thanks. Files date from 2012 so cannot use your neat suggestion.
I have a linux equivalent of Peter's suggested tagger; Puddletag. Will
see if that can do the job.
Many thanks again,
Budge
