I have looked at MetaZ, but I don’t see a way to create custom fields. I can add data to the fields they provide, but I can’t create my own field.

OK. So it looks like mp4 fietype supports custom data fields via xmp metadata standard – see

Looking at that showed up a possible approach – though a pay for

Another that might do it is Daminion

Thanks Mike, These links are great and I will continue to explore. I really thought this would be easier to implement. I’m surprised there isn’t a way to add the fields in encoder.

Maybe it’s possible in AME but I don’t know how. Does either of these help, or have you seen the already ?
