is it possible if one is NOT transcoding
but already has a file and just adds meta data


7    ::::::  WINNER  WINNER mediaInfo DINNER

ffmpeg -i input -c copy -map 0 -metadata creation_time="2013-07-24 
10:13:48" output.mp4

ffmpeg -i  ~//Videos/ShupeJarArtVideo/sjp_0.mp4 \
  -c copy -map 0 -metadata creation_time="2010-11-22 11:22:33" \
  ~//Videos/ShupeJarArtVideo/sjp_7.mp4


  snip from media info shows we have
  SUCCEEDED

Overall bit rate                         : 1 286 Kbps
Movie name                               : Unknown
Encoded date                             : UTC 2010-11-22 11:22:33
Tagged date                              : UTC 2010-11-22 11:22:33
Writing application                      : Lavf56.7.101

So
What am i missing that will enable me to 'punch in' this meta data While 
transcoding
I would like to avoid a
having a mp4 -twice

what i really wish to do is
file.mov (dv50) into a mp4 that has a defined Encoded date
as i understand it now i would have to
file.mov (dv50) into a mp4-1 and do the codec copy with -map 0 -metadata 
creation_time making mp4-2
then dlt mp4-1


any wisdom is most welcomed
thanks in advance

best
