"You're living an absolute dream, but at the same time it was really scary because, man, it was, like, 'What will they expect from us next? We'll never be able to do this again'." "It just became this bizarro world," says co- director Eduardo Sanchez.

In any case I tried to find something that would work with ffmpeg, the closest I got was a post where someone said they used ffprobe to read some. ![]() My guess is that you will be much more familiar with ffmpeg than I. I know that DigiKam uses ffmpeg to read video metadata, but I could not find the right command to get ffmpeg to show the metadata I had entered. One is unaltered, one rated through Windows properties (which is then searchable by rating through Windows search) and the other rated with Adobe Bridge (which is then searchable by rating through Adobe Bridge).Īs I mentioned I used exiftool to check where the metadata was stored. I have attached three sample mov files from a Nikon D5100 DSLR. > Note: digiKam do not use Exiftool to read metadata from video, but ffmpeg. > Can you share some samples of video files previously tagged with these (In reply to caulier.gilles from comment #1) ![]() Star rating is not read by DigiKam, nor is updated by DigiKam. Set rating on mov/mp4 video file via Windows propertyģ. It would not surprise me if the Mac OS can natively edit the SharedUserRating tag too.ġ. Ideally DigiKam would be able to read and write both these rating tags to the metadata of mov/mp4 files for consistency and interoperability.

It would be good if DigiKam read this and added it to its database, and even better if it could write it.Īnother rating tag for mov/mp4 files that would be useful to make use of is the xmp rating tag that Adobe Bridge can read and write. This rating is useful at the File Manager level for searches. Exiftool cannot write to this tag (as of ), but can read it with the following command. It is stored in a QuickTime Tag called SharedUserRating. Windows can natively add a rating to mov and mp4 video files through the file properties details window. ![]() ![]() So what’s going on?
