Post by: billspice on August 14, 2013, 01:25:20 AM
Hello im a nooob at using the gui, and im having difficulites removing tags.

does a particular code have to be inputted to remove specific tags?

i actually am not sure how to do it and would appreciate some advice

(http://13q.imghost.us/mS/mp4%20tag%20help.jpg)

the above image shows some tags id like to remove copyright , composer etc, but the when clicking on these items the right click only dispalys add tag to ciustom view and mark unmark tag, doing this does nothing and it doesnt remove the copyright tag

ideally id like to replace the generic text with specific text

any help would be appreciated!

regards

Did you read the manual (https://exiftool.org/gui/)?  I think the idea is that you add tag names you want to change to the Workspace, then you can edit the values there.

From the look of those tags, I'd guess that the file is a video file, which probably isn't write supported.
