I looked into this a while ago because I wanted something that tags my
converted videos for my iPhone (so .mp4 format). Back then,
TagLibSharp had the infrastructure to write MP4 tag atoms, but no
explicit support for the iTunes way of writing them. Not sure if that
has changed.

I ended up hacking a app that executes AtomicParsley
(http://atomicparsley.sourceforge.net/) in the background to set the
tags. Not very elegant, but it was the best thing I could find at the
time.

@Greg - AtomicParsley would be an option for your PowerShell script.
It is pretty easy to use; --title is the command line argument you
want. --help will show you the rest of the options.
