Post subject:  Support for new iTunes tags

Feature suggestion:

Make ViddyUp support the new video tags in iTunes 7

This will have 2 benefits:

1. If implemented correctly the atoms written to the file should be like the iTunes 7 ones which will avoid the (sometimes lenghty) writing of tags to the file when changing them *

2. Since ViddyUp already has a feature for (partially) tagging a file and adding it to iTunes this would be a logical addition and make it even more usefull together with iTunes 7

*) As i understand it, the data written to the file is larger in iTunes 7, which means that when tagging a file without the correct format tag in the first place, the program needs to rewrite the whole file to disk in order to add the data at the front - which can take a while if it's a large file.

You may want to take a look at VisualHub, as they seem to have reverse engineered the format and can now write tags in the right way (you can't add tags from within the program like in yours, but the program prepares the tags correctly so that editing in iTunes does not require the file to be re-written).
