Description
Summary of the bug:
In earlier versions (I have: "ffmpeg version 0.7.13-rpmfusion" ) the option "-timestamp '2015-05-01 12:34:56'" correctly set the output-file's metadata.
The newer version "ffmpeg version 2.3.4" - or even 2.6.2-static just bails out with:
Option timestamp (set the recording timestamp ('now' to set the current time)) cannot be applied to output file /tmp/x.mp4 -- you are trying to apply an input option to an output file or vice versa. Move this option before the file it belongs to.
Error parsing options for output file /tmp/x.mp4.
Error opening output files: Invalid argument
How to reproduce:

Ok - further looked at this:
the source shows the workaround - tested and works:
ffmpeg_opt.c: opt_recording_timestamp():
and indeed - that works. e.g: -metadata 'creation_time=2015-05-01 11:22:00'
does correctly set it - as it's verifiable via 'exiftool':

...now - what remains from this bug:
a.) the - man-page of (git head) ffmpeg still says:
...which is quite misleading - as it's not working that way.
