2198,support reporting UL of MXF tracks,dericed,,"I'd like to use ffprobe (or ffmpeg) to report on the Universal Label (UL) of the contained streams. With AVI and QuickTime the fourcc is reported but with MXF the output is ""codec_tag_string=[0][0][0][0]"" since it uses 16 byte UL's instead of 4 byte fourccs.

Below is a ffmpeg output. The space that would report to fourcc for avi or QuickTime is blank in the case of MXF.

How to reproduce:
