qtfaststart 1.8

Move QuickTime and MP4 metadata to the beginning of the file

qtfaststart enables streaming and pseudo-streaming of QuickTime and MP4 files by moving metadata and offset information to the beginning of the file. It can also print some useful information about the structure of the file. This program is based on qt-faststart.c from the FFmpeg project, which is released into the public domain, as well as ISO 14496-12:2005 (the official spec for MP4), which can be obtained from the ISO or found online.

Install qtfaststart 1.8 as follows:

guix install qtfaststart@1.8

Or install the latest version:

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
