Use Metadata from Matroska file instead of NFO file - Friedrich0404 - 2022-01-19
I found this https://kodi.wiki/view/Video_file_tagging#Core_Tags so Kodi should support metadata from the matroska file. But i have problems how to write the data to the file. There is a table what tags are supported by applications like ffmpeg. But ist not important what ffmpeg support its important what matroska supports. Here i found this https://www.matroska.org/technical/tagging-video-example.html and tried the tool 'mkvpropedit' from 'mkvtoolnix' with this command line:
Quote:mkvpropedit "lord_of_the_rings.mkv" -e info -s title="The Lord of the Rings" -s director="Peter Jackson" -s date_release="2001"
'It seems 'title' is a support tag but 'director' and 'date_release' isn't. How can i write the information to a matroska file?
