ffmpeg looses OGG-theora metadata tags (like title author etc) on OGG->OGG

Reported by: RyszardG Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: avformat
Version: git-master Keywords: metadata ogg
Cc: Blocked By:
Blocking: Reproduced by developer: yes
Analyzed by developer: no

Description

I can transcode one ogg to second with adding tags:

ffmpeg -i recRLBM.ogv -metadata TITLE="My title" -metadata ARTIST="Me" output.ogv

Tags are correctly added (what can I see when I run any video player and open output.ogv). But when I run ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -i output.ogv something.ogv

I don't have these metadata informations displayed on the Input #0:

  • Priority changed from important to normal
  • Component changed from FFmpeg to undetermined

Is this reproducible with current git head?

Replying to cehoyos:

Is this reproducible with current git head?

Yes, it is reproductible in ffmpeg-HEAD-21270cf too.

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to worksforme

Either this was fixed or there is some critical information missing:
ffmpeg -i theora-0packets.ogv -vcodec copy -metadata TITLE="My title" -metadata ARTIST="Me" meta.ogv
[...]
ffmpeg -i meta.ogv
[...]

Metadata gets lost if meta.ogv if encoded again:
$ ffmpeg -i theora-0packets.ogv -vcodec copy -metadata TITLE="My title" -metadata ARTIST="Me" meta.ogv

$ ffmpeg -i meta.ogv out.ogv

  • Keywords metadata ogg added
