 Post subject: Should I edit mp4 metadata before uploading to remove identifying information?

I have several instructionals from JudoFanatics and FanaticWrestling that haven't been uploaded here yet. Is there any identifying information in the metadata of the mp4 files that I should delete before uploading (so that they cannot be linked to my account)? Apologies for the rookie question.

Hello,

I understand your concern but I seriously doubt that you have to worry about that.

If you are indeed paranoid and would like to "make sure"... then you can make a rip (re-encode) of the files. There are plenty of free tools around to rip media files. One that comes to mind is handbrake, a classic tool for re-encoding media files. https://handbrake.fr/

You can run the files through handbrake, set the quality etc to same as it is if you like, then have fresh video files created by you instead of the originals.

But as I said I dont think you should have to worry too much about it. But better safe then sorry I suppose :)
