Video Metadata Editor

About Video Metadata Editor

Our Video Metadata Editor is a fast, efficient tool for managing the internal 'tags' or information stored inside your video files. Every video file can contain hidden data like the title, author, creation date, and copyright information. This tool allows you to view and modify these fields or remove them entirely for privacy reasons. One of the most powerful features of this tool is that it uses 'stream copying,' meaning it only updates the metadata headers without touching the actual video or audio data. This makes the process nearly instantaneous and ensures 100% original quality. Built with a privacy-first approach, all metadata editing occurs locally in your browser. This ensures that your private information and file structures are never shared with any external servers. It's the perfect utility for organizing your media library or sanitizing files before public sharing.

How to use Video Metadata Editor

1. Upload the video file whose metadata you want to edit (works best with MP4 and MOV).
2. Fill in the metadata fields you wish to update, such as 'Title,' 'Artist,' or 'Comment.'
3. Leave fields blank if you wish to remove existing metadata for that specific tag.
4. Click the 'Update Metadata' button to apply the changes—this is usually instantaneous.
5. Download your updated video file with the new internal tags correctly saved.
