Video Metadata Tags #127

Closed ebb-earl-co closed 3 months ago

ebb-earl-co commented 3 months ago

As videos are most likely always going to be H.264 + AAC stereo .mp4 files from TIDAL, the metadata around this is pretty well established. I am using as my guide:

There is the mp4v2 tool, but mutagen handles all the tags so far, and adding another binary would be silly. So, read the above guides and implement as many of the tags as possible from the (limited) TIDAL API endpoints for music videos.

New resource: QuikTime TagNames. For the tag stik (i.e. MediaType), the value of 1 means music and the value of 6 means music video!

Just a note here that all of this work is moot for those who use the pyinstaller-created binaries. This is because I cannot figure out how to compile FFmpeg with libopenh264 and configure minimal filters/bitstreams/operations/whatever-they-are-called to simply remux the concatenated .ts files into an MP4... Because the user of those binaries will leave the videos retrieved as they were, not even attempting to add metadata with FFmpeg :disappointed:
