Title: how to remove only title data in all image files
Post by: paulgodard on December 15, 2023, 03:00:57 AM
Hi. 
I am totally new to exiftool and a bit lost in how much it can do... definitely worth to learn more about it.  Thank you Phil!
I have an urgent problem to solve... very simple, but I am not sure I know how to do it.
I simply need to remove all data in only one tag - the title - in a series of images (jpg) and video (mp4).
I am on mac... so what should I type in terminal?
exiftool exif-title='' *.*

This should remove all Titles from .jpg and .mp4:

exiftool -m -P -ext jpg -ext mp4 -api LargeFileSupport=1 -XMP-dc:Title= -IPTC:ObjectName= -Keys:Title= -UserData:Title= -ItemList:Title= -Keys:DisplayName= .
...or just:

exiftool -m -P -ext jpg -ext mp4 -api LargeFileSupport=1 -Title= -ObjectName= -DisplayName= .
add -overwrite_original to prevent backups.
