It seems some developers dislike exporting 4 byte vendor tags as
metadata.
Maybe using the table from:
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/QuickTime.html#VendorID

And instead exporting the full vendor name as metadata from the demuxer
and converting it back to a 4byte value using the same table in the
muxer would be an option ?

If this doesnt result in a resolution of the disagreements then feel
free to ignore my suggestion, its not my intent to complicate this
by adding additional requests

thx
