I have a .m4a file that I getting the metadata from by using the QTMovie. I'm the owner of the file and have read write access to it. The attribute I'm concerned with is the QTMovieDisplayNameAttribute. I can get it and set it just fine but if I try to save the changes it fails. I was using the call updateMovieFile to save. Here is the code.

This would be better directed to the quicktime-api list, but anyway, QTKit (and QuickTime in general) can only work with QuickTime movies.When you read-in the m4a file, you are actually importing it: creating a QuickTime movie that points to the same data as the m4a. You are then setting the display name of the imported movie. But you can't update the m4a file. UpdateMovieFile will only work if you read in a QuickTime movie (usually has a mov extension) in the first place. You can write out the QTMovie object to a new file as a QuickTime movie, if that format is acceptable.
