Hi to all of you,

I have to convert about 1'000 video files from .MTS to .mov.

Unfortunately the creation and modification date of the original file are not kept during conversion.

I need to find a way to batch copy the metadata from the original file to the converted one.

Any chances any one has an idea on how to do it?

I am on MAC, best would be an automator script but I guess any working solution would be fine !

I would greatly appreciate if you could help

regards

Cyril

Hi Cyril,

I don't use Mac, but Google gives some results, i.e. this one: http://www.applesolutions.com/bantha/MH.html

Quicktime cannot open nor play MTS file !

I already have the software for converting the files !

I only need to find a way to copy the metadata from the original file to the converted one.
