Earlier version able to add tags version 12.51 cannot.

Exif version 0.6.22 on MacOS (understood to be Perl version) successful to run:

Tag as equirectangular, eg: for FaceBook
   exiftool -ProjectionType="equirectangular" imagefilename.jpg

Tag as cylindrcial panorama, eg: for faceBook
   exiftool -FullPanoWidthPixels=8192 -FullPanoHeightPixels=4096
            -CroppedAreaLeftPixels=0 -CroppedAreaTopPixels=1195
            -CroppedAreaImageWidthPixels=8192 -CroppedAreaImageHeightPixels=1707
            -ProjectionType=cylindrical imagefilename.jpg

Windows based Exiftool version 12.51 does not recognize the example Exiftool commands.

To figure out the problem, I need more details:

You san that ExifTool 12.51 doesn't recognize these commands.  What message is returned?

(Also, I don't know what Exif version 0.6.22 is.  This isn't ExifTool.)

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).
