Title: exif in .mov not writeable?
Post by: Alan Clifford on November 16, 2019, 10:29:16 AM

Before posting a lot of details, I have a .mov file with existing exif data but I am wondering if it is normal for exif data not to be written to .mov.

Code Select

[EXIF:IFD0]     Make                            : FUJIFILM
[EXIF:IFD0]     Camera Model Name               : X-S1
[EXIF:IFD0]     Modify Date                     : 2019:02:13 11:47:09
[EXIF:IFD0]     Thumbnail Offset                : 952449
[EXIF:IFD0]     Thumbnail Length                : 9199
[EXIF:IFD0]     Copyright                       : 
[EXIF:IFD0]     Thumbnail Image                 : (Binary data 9199 bytes, use -b option to extract)
[EXIF:ExifIFD]  Date/Time Original              : 2019:02:13 11:47:09
[EXIF:ExifIFD]  Create Date                     : 2019:02:13 11:47:09
[EXIF:ExifIFD]  Exposure Compensation           : 0

My script writes xmp gps data but not exif gps data. So I tried
exiftool -gpslatituderef="North" temp.mov

and get

Code Select

EXIF is non-standard in MOV videos, and ExifTool will not create it. See the MOV entry in the supported file types list (https://exiftool.org/#supported).
