How much you wanna bet that running the file through ffmpeg in a Linux subsystem scrambles whatever signature it's checking
Modern content detection systems don't rely on file signatures, they rely on content signatures. So, unless your FFMEG turns Alien movie into Jurassic Park movie, it will be detected as Alien movie.
Yeah, but how? How can a detection system detect the content of a video file stored locally? So they have petabytes of cache containing every movie ever made? Also do they upload files to server for detection?
Any of these can be disabled rather easily.
