How to save metadata when compressing videos. Instead of Handbrake, use VidCoder to compress videos and SAVE the metadata to the new file.
When you compress or encode videos in Handbrake, it does not transfer the metadata to the new file. This means that you are losing the original date and time of the video. VidCoder solves this problem by allowing you to save metadata to the new video file. You can save the time and date of recording, director, actors, etc., to the new encoded video. All you need to do is turn on 2 settings to preserve metadata.
Why would you want metadata to be preserved / maintained? In Google Photos, for example, it sorts media by the created date. VidCoder preserves this information and Google Photos will sort the video correctly. This is a must-have for managing photos and videos archives on your computer. Another scenario is when you are in File Explorer, sorting a folder by Date will sort the contents according to their creation date. Videos encoded by VidCoder will be sorted correctly.
VidCoder uses Handbrake as its encoding engine, so you can also compress videos using this handy program.
