Metadata Hootenanny

The QuickTime movie metadata editor

Metadata HootenannyOverview

Editor: What Does It Do? It allows you to edit and search the metadata that can be stored in QuickTime movies (mov files), including chapters. Quicktime files support a large number of metadata options, but the QuickTime Player doesn't provide an easy way of accessing them. Metadata Hootenanny does.

Why Would I Ever Want To Have Metadata in My Movies? If you find that you have lots and lots of movie files and you want to keep track of which one is which, metadata is for you. For example, if you just watched a great TV show on your iPhone, and you want to find some more shows in your collection by the same writer or director, metadata is for you.

What Kind of Metadata Are We Talking About Here?

- Tags: all the "annotations" that Quicktime uses (Album, Artist, Author, Comment, etc), including many that are not accessible in QuickTime Player, and including language-specific tags (the user sees tag info in his/her own language, after you have added it). Arbitrary custom categories can be used as well, but they are limited to four characters long and starting with '©', e.g. "©IOU." You can type a © in MacOS with option-g.
- Properties: movie track formats, sizes, lengths, durations, offsets, languages, and many more. External tracks can be added to the movie simply by dragging the files into this view.
- Chapter Tracks: pop-Up bookmark-like chapters compatible with QuickTime Player and iLife apps, including language-specific chapters.
- Interactive Sprites: DVD-like menus that are completely contained and natively supported within the QuickTime file structure.

That doesn't sound easy enough. What else does it do to make Things easier? Several web-pages containing movies' chapters or other metadata including cover art, like IMDB, can be added automatically with a simple drag and drop from your browser.
Chapter times can be copied off of a DVD and added directly to the movie file, with just a few clicks. Chapters from text, ogm, or other mov files can also be copied over
