Hello,

I have an mov file encoded as an mp4 MBR stream at 3-4 different bitrates
with x264 encoding.

Is there a way for me to remove the x264 specific metadata from the MDAT
box of the mp4? Right now, my MDAT has the following as the first few
bytes. Is this length accounted for as part of MDAT headers?

x264 - core 132 - H.264/MPEG-4 AVC codec - Copyleft 2003-2013 -
http://www.videolan.org/x264.html - options:  cabac=0 ref=1 deblock=1:0:0
