unable to establish or populate Pix4D fields in XMP-Camera group

[malonzo47]

Hello --

I am using the pix4d.config file to try to get Pitch, Roll, and Yaw into those slots within the XMP-Camera group. I have been successful previously (I'm 99% sure) but it's not working now for some reason that I can't figure out.

My command is:
exiftool -config pix4d.config -csv="C:\temp\csv_with_tags_not_functional.csv" C:\temp\G-LiHT__306959.jpg

I have tried the csv column headers e.g., just "Roll" and also "XMP-Camera:Roll" with neither working. The pix4d.config file is unaltered from what I snagged from Phil. Fields like gpslatitude DO seem to update ok.

CSV and one image attached.

Thanks and apologies for newbie errors.

What was the output from that command?  Where is your pix4d.config located?  Maybe you need to put the full path to the config file?

When I run your command, after editing the source file path, exiftool correctly fills out the tags in your csv here.

Thanks for trying. Given that it worked for you, I dug back into the pix4d.config file. Maybe I did change something? I removed this (below) and then it worked! Was this not in original config file? It is possible that I changed this for another purpose (to deal DD vs. DMS coordinate loading). Well, probably my mistake. --Thanks, Mike

No, it's not.  You can see the original file on GitHub.
