Hello

I have some thing wired (to me) again... Some pictures have 2 Orientation tags and I can delete/change only one of them. I also tried to rebuild the Exif, but same thing.

Stuff I tried includes this:

exiftool -all= -tagsfromfile @ -all:all -unsafe "DSC_0011.jpg"
exiftool -a -n -Orientation=  -Orientation=  DSC_0011.jpg

And still, there is one Orientation tag left. How can I get ride of it? (I rotate the pictures after whit previous read Orientation.)

Thanks for any help!

You can delete/change the other Orientation tag by specifying IFD1:Orientation.

FAQ number 3 talks about this.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Thanks for your help! I totally ignored the 1 behind -G so far...
