Can't save metadata when convert video files using python ffmpeg












2















I tried to us ffmpy library to convert .MOV files into .MP4.
Converting works well, but I can't save metadata like title and artist.



ff = ffmpy.FFmpeg(
inputs={'input.mov': None},
outputs={'output.mp4': None},
global_options=[
'-metadata name=james',
'-metadata artist=Beauty and Beast'
]
)

ff.run()

          You have to change output file options.



          ff = ffmpy.FFmpeg(
          inputs={'input.mov': None},
          outputs={'output.mp4': [
          '-metadata', 'artist=james',
          '-metadata', 'title=Beauty and Beast'
          ]},
          )

          ff.run()
