sndfile-metadata-set sets bext and string
metadata in an audio file if the format supports it. If the file does not
contain a BEXT chunk to be modified, the second synopsis must be used, where
another output file capable of storing the metadata is created. This file is
overwritten if it already exists. The following options take an argument
specifying the metadata:
--bext-description- description
--bext-originator- originator
--bext-orig-ref- originator reference
--bext-umid- Unique Material Identifier
--bext-orig-date- origination date
--bext-orig-time- origination time
--bext-coding-hist- coding history
--bext-time-raf- time reference
--str-comment- comment
--str-title- title
--str-copyright- copyright
--str-artist- artist
--str-date- date
--str-album- album
--str-license- license
The following options take no argument:
--bext-auto-time-date- Set the BEXT time and date to current.
--bext-auto-time- Set the BEXT time to current.
--bext-auto-date- Set the BEXT date to current.
--str-auto-date- Set the string date to current.
