a) That's the command line tool of a different project. ;-)
b) Rockland wrote that s/he wishes to *preserve*, not dump. And with
libav, I assume, s/he meant using the libraries in a SW project.

Rockland,
you make need to check how ffmpeg (the command line tool) does it, by
linking the demuxer's metadata to the muxer. The libraries support
extracting and adding metadata by default, no special options.
