Auto tag video clips based on meta data

Is there an app or an easy way to auto tag the video clips with my predefined tags, like framerate, resolution etc. Today I use the app Mediainfo, and tag each file manually. That takes a lot of time.

How to add tags to self imported films in Apple TV app on macOS? f ExiI just discovered the Apple TV.app on my new Mini(2013). Looks like a useful app, but I have a problem: Apple TV allows to import self recorded films. After import it shows the headers for Cast, Directors, Screenwriters and Producers but I cannot find a way to add this information. In films bought at Apple these tags were filled already. I tried to use 'exiftool', but these tags cannot be written if not already available. Exiftool says that these tags are from directory "Plist - XML"... but which Plist? Has anybody an idea how to complete this information on self imported films? Regards - Matthias

Can I add metadata to a Video file? Hi I've been using Lightroom to permanently add GPS and other data to JPGs but no app seems to work for video files like .MOV, .MP4, or .AVI. Is this possible? Thanks

Choosing thumbnails in iMovie Projects In the Photos app you have a function called "Make key photo" and that photo will become the thumbnail for that album. Do you have a similar function in iMovie Projects? It looks as if iMovie randomly chooses a photo/clip to be used as Thumbnail for the Project. And when you SHARE a Project to a file and import it into ATV you get yet another random created Thumbnail. The first screenshot is from the imported movie in ATV and the other one is from the listing of Projects in iMovie.

Hi (Bonjour),

I don't know a way to tag them, but you can import your media and create a Smarth collection with specific Format info like Video frame rate, Frame size, etc.
