[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Implement -convert_tags in ffprobe

[Stefano Sabatini]

Hi, as in subject.

Increase readability and may help scripting.

I know that I'm the supposed maintainer of the tool, nonetheless I'm
exposing this to review in case someone has improvements to suggest.

I'll apply the patch in few days otherwise.
Example:

stefano at geppetto ~/s/ffmpeg.git> ffprobe -show_format slow.avi
[...]
[FORMAT]
filename=slow.avi
nb_streams=2
format_name=avi
format_long_name=AVI format
start_time=0.000000 
duration=27.327300 
size=1193820.000000 
bit_rate=349487.000000 
TAG:IART=Kylie
TAG:ICMT=a comment
TAG:ICOP=what
TAG:IGNR=pop
TAG:ILNG=eng
TAG:INAM=Slow
TAG:ISFT=Lavf52.57.1
[/FORMAT]
