Title: Mobotix Metadata Format
Post by: fluxorsist on September 19, 2013, 08:37:38 AM
Hi everyone,

I have some images coming from a Mobotix S15 camera that I'd like to read the metadata from. (http://www.mobotix.com/other/Products/Cameras/FlexMount-S15) Mobotix seems to store the metadata in the comment section using their own format.

Is it possible to support this metadata format in ExifTool? It would be a great help since it would allow us to use our existing scripts to read the metadata of images coming from different sources.

Unfortunately this metadata is stored in the JPEG comment:

So you will have to extract what you want from the comment text.

There also seems to be a bit of binary data after the text, but this could just be garbage.
