I have successfully been able to extract the hidden subtitle data that contains GPS coordinates from MP4 video files collected with our Autel Evo II drone.  using the -ee Exiftool command.  Thank you so much for this software.

You requested that I upload a MP4 file from the Autel Evo II drone.  The smallest MP4 I have is 34kb.  How do I upload it?

Here is the text file generated from Exiftools -ee function.

The file has the GPS data I am looking for plus lots of information not needed.  I would like to use the -p option and a format file to extract the GPS data only.

I got the sample video.  I should be able to add support for extracting the GPS with ExifTool 13.00, which will allow you to use the -p option to generate a GPX file.

Just one question:  Are those timestamps UTC or local time?
