CompareMetaData

Connecting nodes to the CompareMetaData node enables you to quickly determine metadata differences between files. The CompareMetaData node only shows keys and values where there are differences between the two inputs. For example, if you were having trouble with QuickTime frame rates, you could connect up two QuickTime files and immediately see differences between the input/frame_rate key values.
