Title: Writing metadata to HEIC images
Post by: bungaman on August 23, 2021, 09:59:33 PM
I found this example at MikeBeach [dot] org... but I'm getting the error below from the following:
exiftool -overwrite_original -tagsFromFile "IMG_0010.xmp" -all:all "IMG_0010.heic"

Warning: Can't currently decode protected application/rdf+xml metadata - IMG_0010.heic
    0 image files updated
    1 image files unchanged

Do I need to map the XMP tags to EXIF?

Further to above...

exiftool -DateTimeOriginal="2020:03:17 08:30:00" IMG_0010.heic

and get same error.  will investigate to see if the image is corrupted.

p.s. all using V12.30

A sample image where this happens would probably be helpful, but I'm guessing right now Phil is experiencing really good weather which means he's out taking pictures.

Good guess, but this time I was enjoying the nice weather at the cottage (where I don't have internet).
