[FFmpeg-user] AIFF ID3 tag not written

[Pete Coward]

copying an aiff file removes the ID3 tag, though it reads the input
ID3 tag and as far as I can tell from the log it writes it to the
output stream. I'd be very grateful for any advice.

Test file: that available at https://archive.org/details/TestAifAiffFile
Cmd line:
ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i 02DayIsDone.aif -f aiff -codec copy
-map_metadata 0 -id3v2_version 3 02DayIsDone_copy.aif
