      BodyContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler();
      Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
      FileInputStream inputstream = new FileInputStream(new File("javatpoint.mp4"));
      ParseContext pcontext = new ParseContext();
      
      MP4Parser MP4Parser = new MP4Parser();
      MP4Parser.parse(inputstream, handler, metadata,pcontext);
      System.out.println("Document Content  :" + handler.toString());
      System.out.println("Document Metadata :");
      String[] metadataNames = metadata.names();
