An ffmpeg developer, especially one who knows their way around atoms, might be able to fix this. (I can give more details what my issues were, if anyone picks this up.)

Thank you Moritz. I really apreciate your kind answer. But ... I don't understand what you are planning to do. Please tell me if I'm right or wrong : - ffprobe/ffmpeg will display the data contained in the "name" atom to stdout/stderr BUT - ffmpeg will NOT be able to copy the audio stream "title" to a new MP4 output file by using the -c copy option Please let me know.

Indeed, I can confirm this. ffmpeg is able to insert the per-track "title", but not able to extract it. (Technical detail: it's the "name" atom beneath the "udta" atom beneath the "trck" atom.) > Maybe this is a designed behavior of ffmpeg/ffprobe. > Or a bug ? A shortcoming. I'm able to change the ffmpeg source code to parse the per-track title, but cannot get it inserted properly in the demuxer metadata.

[FFmpeg-user] Issue when adding a title to an audio stream within a mp4 file
Hello All, I'm not a developper. Therefore I'm not able to analyze the ffmpeg/ffprobe source code. I observed that the command below seem to work properly when adding a title to an audio stream within an MP4 file : ffmpeg -i INPUT.mp4 -c copy -metadata:s:a:0 "title=mono" OUTPUT.mp4 Both VLC and Exiftool do display correctly the audio stream title of the OUTPUT.mp4 file when needed. The point is that neither ffmpeg nor ffprobe can do it. For example, the command : ffmpeg -i OUTPUT.mp4 (with no output file) do not show the audio title. I don't know where ffmpeg stores the title metadata but VLC and Exiftool are able to retrieve it. Maybe this is a designed behavior of ffmpeg/ffprobe. Or a bug ? Please let me know. ___ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
