Search for movie files meta tags

[Davide]

Want to search for movie meta tags. (Not openmeta-style 'xattr' tags or Spotlight comments!)

 

I use Tagger for tagging mp4 files. What can I do, Alfred (or Spotlight) show me the tags?

Are you wanting to search by tag or wanting to select a file and see its tags?

I want to search by tag.

If you do an mdls on the file to see the metadata associated with it, you can find the tag name used to store the data. With that, you could create a workflow in Alfred that would allow you to search based on that metadata field only and show all results that are matches for it.
