Video Length Metadata V 1.0.2

Created videos all were missing the videos length metadata. This is critical sorting and comparing file information. I had to use command prompt ffmpeg to add the length.

I also noticed the metadata for data rate was incorrect. I specified export bitrate of 24 mb/s and the created file said 39762. FFmpeg correct bitrate to expected 23997.

ffmpeg corrected the metadata without re-encoding video. Took only a few seconds per video.

I used AI model artemis and export codec h265 profile main 10.

Is this a known bug and can it be fixed?

I’m on Topaz video 1.02. Not sure if it’s a bug for this new release version, but it is the first time I had this problem. It appears new codec were introduced in this this or 1.01.

If anyone is interested this is the ffmpeg 8.0 command prompt I used:
ffmpeg -i “input.mp4” -map_metadata 0 -t 00:03:32 -c copy “Output_2.mp4”

  1. -You have to change directory to path of your file
  2. Change input and output to your file name
  3. Output file name must be unique. I added _2. ffmpeg cannot change metadata in-place and must create a new file
  4. Map metadata 0 tells ffmpeg not to change other file metadate (like dates)
  5. -t is the time/length of the file to change
  6. -c copy tells ffmpeg not to change any video or audio streams (exact copy)

This is an issue that we have seen before and the team was looking into this.

Can you pull the logs and send to the support team at help@topazlabs.com so we can share with the devs for investigation?

Ok, I sent the logs for support.

Definitely a 1.0.2 issue. I downgraded to 1.0.1 and there is no metadata issue.

Looks to have been resolved in the release of 1.0.3.
