I haven't tried it, but a quick search finds http://ffmpegwinrtarm.codeplex.com/ which claims to be a version of ffmpeg which works in Windows Store apps. For help with it check out that site.

Like Jeff said in your other thread, you'll need to check with atomic parsley to see if they provide a version for Windows Store apps.Thursday, March 20, 2014 3:35 AMModerator

Please post new questions in new threads.
You can set properties on a file via the StorageFile.Properties objects. Once you've modified the properties you can save them with the SavePropertiesAsync | savePropertiesAsync methods .
This is demonstrated in the Simple imaging sampleand the Media Hub sample app
