    I encoded a video using HandBrakeCLI..
    it went great.. but I have a problem.. when I checked with ffmpeg, there will be a line:

    encoder : HandBrake 0.9.8 2012091600

    I tried this:

    ffmpeg -i abc.mp4 -metadata encoder="GM" -acodec copy -vcodec copy abcd.mp4

    but when I check the output:

    encoder : Lavf55.7.100

    is there any mistake I did?
    how can I change the "encoder" to something else or remove it??

    I changed the thread title so it better describes your problem.

    No, I have no idea how to change the encoder metadata.

    Use a hex editor and overwrite the offending string with spaces, interrogation marks, or asterisks.
