= XMP Metadata =

== Background ==
XMP is a generic metadata format that can be used with many formats, among that many multimedia formats (avi, mov, flv, 3gp, mp4, mxf, asf). Window Vista uses XMP by default.

The metadatamux/demux elements in gst-plugins-bad are not the right approach for XMP support. See discussion in [[http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486659|Bug 486659]]. An initial implementation of xmp reading and writing is now available in [[http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609539|Bug 609539]].

== Task ==

The scope of this project would be to:
 * improve the implementation
 * add tests
 * add more metadata field mappings
 * use it an all supported formats within gstreamer.
