[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libavformat/mov: add support for name udta (PR #20802)

[Lukas via ffmpeg-devel]

PR #20802 opened by Lukas (lholliger)
URL: https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/pulls/20802
Patch URL: https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/pulls/20802.patch

In the QTFF documentation for udta/"user data atoms", "name" is a
valid entry for "name of object" however it is currently skipped
leading to some missing metadata when copying for some files. This
isn't classified the same as "(C)nam" which is "Title of content"
so they aren't necessarily the same.

Fixes #20750
