Hello, this is my first time in this Forum, I'm a very inexperienced user of Exiftool command line... :-[, usually using Exiftool Gui.
My OS: Windows 10 64 Bits
ExifTool version: 10.6.3.0
I'm trying to inject Xmp:TimeStamp metadata to a Spherical LG-360 Cam mp4 video.
The original Video has right date (Tag Xmp:TimeStamp), but the stitched video, injected with "Spherical Metadata Tool" has lost several metadata, including TimeStamp one.
If I export right original video metadata to xmp (using Exiftool GUI), the obtained file doesn't contains part of the metadata, including Xmp TimeStamp.
I'm trying to "reinject" these data with a command line,
exiftool.exe "-XMP-GSpherical:TimeStamp=2005:08:30 20:00:00" C:\20170829.mp4
but I always get the error:
Warning: Invalid date/time (use YYYY:mm:dd HH:MM:SS[.ss][+/-HH:MM|Z]) for XMP-GSpherical:TimeStamp
Nothing to do.
<-END-
This error appears also if I try to inject these metadata using Exiftool GUI.
Thanks,
This is a bug in ExifTool, but I don't think that fixing this bug will help because I believe that Google (for whatever reason) doesn't write the GSpherical XMP to the location specified by the XMP standard. ExifTool will write this to the standard XMP location.
I will fix this bug (the tag's Writable format should be "integer" instead of "date"), but I don't want to get your hopes up too much.

Ok, I understand. ;)
Thanks for your impressive work.
Just a note: ExifTool 11.54 or later (July 2019) writes GSpherical tags to the GSphericalXML of the video track.
