Hi,

I'm currently using Exiftool for a student project and I'm having a problem with warnings when editing image's metadata with JSON file.
Indeed when I modify metadata in this way, warnings are correctly displayed :

$> exiftool -File:ExifByteOrder="unauthorized value" 1.jpg
Warning: Can't convert File:ExifByteOrder (not in PrintConv)
Nothing to do.


But when I do this same operation with a JSON file, the console doesn't display warnings :

$> exiftool -j=1.json 1.jpg
0 image files updated
1 image files unchanged


1.json content :
[{"SourceFile":"1.jpg","File:ExifByteOrder":"unauthorized value"}]

Is it possible to display them with the command above?
I consulted the documentation, but without success.

Pierre Lefèvre.

Hi Pierre,

Add the -v option to see all of these warnings.

...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 ($).

Hi,

Thank you very much, it works!
I missed that while reading the documentation.
