elodie Error when writing to mp4 files halts processing

On Linux (Fedora), elodie fails to write metadat to mp4 files. They were initially imported and renamed, but when I tried to update the location and date, it fails:

('{"source":"videos/2012-01-06_16-06-23-gopr0540.mp4",', '"error_msg":"Failed to update location"}')

I'll investigate more and post back more info.

We use avmetareadwrite to update EXIF on audio and video files which isn't supported on Linux or Windows. See gh-62 for more details.

Gotcha.

This bug halts elodie though, couldn't it continue processing and print out the errors that occurred at the end?

We should continue processing. Reopening issue to output failure message instead of halting processing when it encounters this error.

@Ramblurr I wanted to better understand the behavior you're seeing. Does this mainly apply when you are updating multiple files and it halts when it reaches an mp4 file?

Exactly, yes. When doing updates it will exit on mp4 files.

Thanks. I'm not sure why it's doing that but I will have a look.
