When Copying my metadata from one image to another image, not all the metadata is transferred. I've tried using the all:all and -xmp options, but no luck.
exiftool.exe -ext TIF -TagsFromFile C:/RCalibration/IMG_180810_150049_0010_RED.TIF C:/RCalibration/Images_Corrected/CorrectedIMG_180810_150049_0010_RED.TIF
I've attached a photo of the exif data where the left image is the metadata of the original image while the right is the new image with the missing information that now has a Sample Format : Float and XMP Toolkit : image::Exiftool 10.65 instead.
I've attached also a sample of the original photo with all the metadata.
Note that the Yellow boxes are is the data that I really need, but would like to preserve all of it if possible.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I will have 1000 + photos to do this for but want to start with one before I do them all.
Did you try -all:all and -xmp together?
If so, specifically what tags weren't copied (from the exiftool -G1 -a output)?
- Phil
Yes I've tried them together.
Running the exiftool -G1 -a for both images I see that the XMP-Camera are the tags that missing, and I get an XMP-x instead which is the XMP Toolkit : image::Exiftool 10.6.
What you describe will happen if the XMP tags are copied individually (ExifTool doesn't have definitions for the tags you want to write, so they won't get written).
But when I try with -all:all -xmp, then the xmp gets copied as a block:

Thanks Phil! I solved it by rearranging the code in the exact same format you had and it worked (although I'm not sure why)!
Really loving exiftool its an amazing program! :)
It wouldn't work if you put the -xmp before the -tagsFromFile option, but other than that order shouldn't matter. If you post the exact command that didn't work I can tell you why.
