Live Photos / HEICs #225

Closed aidan-gibson closed 11 months ago

aidan-gibson commented 11 months ago

When a HEIC with "Live Photo" is enabled, Google Photos splits the HEIC file into a still, which still has the extension HEIC, and an MP4 with the same name. This program classifies the MP4 as metadata unknown, when it should match the HEIC (or, even better, should remerge the HEIC and MP4 into one HEIC, although I couldn't find any tools to do so).

Fortunately, if importing into Apple Photos, the Photos app understands putting them back together for the most part, so turned out to be a non-issue for me.

(Thank you for making this fantastic script!)
