Hello,
Looking into FFMPEG's source when trying to figure out how to change a
ProRes Video Stream's vendor tag (which is required for certain automated
spec compliency tests), I have found that the vendor code is hard-coded to
"FFMP" as visible on this line of code:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/c75dfa043585db7f5e20f5cab2ca8be1771ca7b6/libavformat/movenc.c#L2128
. Being hardcoded, it doesn't seem like it can be changed unless the
source is forked. Is there a reason this is set to "FFMP"? Would there be
an issue changing it to "appl"? Why was a different value from "appl"
chosen in the first place?
Sincerely,
Marcel
