How to edit EXIF data of mp4 video file in Windows Phone 8.1

Is anybody know how possible to edit EXIF data of video file in Windows Phone 8.1?

Case i can record video (screen capture) and need to modify EXIF data of video. Example:

StorageFolder folder = KnownFolders.VideosLibrary;
string currentFileName = DateTime.Now.ToString("yy-MM-dd__hh-mm-ss");
StorageFile videoFile = await folder.CreateFileAsync(currentFileName+".mp4", CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);

...

// Create an encoding profile to use.                  
var profile = Windows.Media.MediaProperties.MediaEncodingProfile.CreateMp4(Windows.Media.MediaProperties.VideoEncodingQuality.HD1080p);
// Start recording
await _mediaCapture.StartRecordToStorageFileAsync(profile, videoFile);

I haven't had a chance to test this myself to see where the metadata is written but the StorageFolder.Properties property might be what you are looking for. 

StorageFile file = //get a file
Dictionary<String, object> propertiesToSave = new Dictionary<string, object>();

//This provides convenient access to the properties
var videoProps = await file.Properties.GetVideoPropertiesAsync();

//You can add as many properties to save as you want here
propertiesToSave.Add("System.Video.Director", "Director Name");

videoProps.SavePropertiesAsync(propertiesToSave);

The list of properties is useful for finding what you can write

Edit: Added more details for clarity on how to save properties.
