First of all, thanks for creating and supporting this awesome tool which I have been using for many years, now!
In my current project, I am trying to read all xmp data from the original file and then apply it to the target file. For that, I use the binary format:
- exiftool -xmp -b source.jpg
- save the output in a file temp.xmp
- exiftool -tagsfromfile temp.xmp -xmp:all target.jpg
That works well for most images. But there are cases with two xmp sections, e.g. if a picture is shot with an iPhone or a Xiaomi phone in portrait mode, the phone itself adds the first section - before the EXIF data. If I rate or label the picture in Adobe Bridge, another section is added - after the EXIF data.
The above commands only extract the first xmp section. But I am mostly interested in the second xmp section (which contains the rating and label). How do I do that properly?
Thanks a lot for your help!
