Title: Overwrite thermal information
Post by: sebastianbarria on October 18, 2023, 09:04:26 AM
Hi.
Is it possible to edit metadata of thermal values like Emissivity, ObjectDistance, etc?
When I tried to overwrite it, it returns this:
> exiftool -ObjectDistance='2.000 m' test.jpg
    0 image files updated
    1 image files unchanged

Is there any chance to overwrite that value, maybe using a config file?... I've tried that also, but didn't work.

Please help!... thanks!

ExifTool can't modify most FLIR information, and it can't be added in a config file because the basic mechanism to write most FLIR metadata doesn't exist in ExifTool  :(
