Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I edit video metadata without re-encoding the video?

A: Yes! That is the core advantage of SolveMyMedia. We use WebAssembly stream copying to update the container header tags (moov atom) without re-encoding any video or audio frames.

Q: Will the updated tags show up in VLC and Apple QuickTime?

A: Yes. Standard tags like Title, Artist, and Year follow official ISO BMFF / QuickTime specifications recognized by VLC, QuickTime, Windows Explorer, and Apple TV.

Q: What video formats can have their metadata edited?

A: We support MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, and M4V. MP4 and MOV offer the highest compatibility across all consumer devices.

Q: Are there any file size limits for editing metadata?

A: Because the tool runs locally in your browser memory, you can edit standard video files smoothly. Files up to 2GB are supported easily.
