Recorded videos have no metadata #288

Specifically timestamps. Whenever I put a video recorded by SSR into just about any video player, it doesn't know how long the video is until after playing it.

So are you suggesting that SSR add in metadata? If so then I agree with you, currently if I want to add any tags to the video I have to go into 3rd party software and I really don't think that its worth my time to do if this is added in it would be appreciated.

SSR doesn't add much metadata, but the total length should definitely be in there. Video players should be able to tell how long the video file is, unless you tried to play the video file before SSR actually finished it (this is possible with MKV).

@StripedMonkey Which tags would you like to add?

Specifically the year/date it was recorded and the comment, those are the two that I would use most often

very interesting. i am interested in this as well since my youtube videos i upload, i would like their to be metadata. i can always add that in via kdenlive.

to me though its not really worth it, the way I organize my videos most of them are sorted by date into files meh,

You can "cheat" and check "Separate file per segment" so there is time stamp in video file name. Very useful

StripedMonkey commented 9 years ago

Yea, I do do that. However I think that this will be easily fixed because of how easy it would be to just add in the tag.
