These are a few of the metadata tags you can use. Several have sample
data that I've used. You'll want to change the disposition tag to suite
your use:

-metadata description=""
-metadata title=""
-metadata year=""
-metadata category=""
-metadata podcast=""
-metadata genre=""
-metadata artist=""
-metadata date=""
-metadata album=""
-metadata comment=""
-metadata media_type=""

-metadata:s:a:0 language=eng
