problem with import metadata .tif files

[Ingert]

hello everybody,

I first exported metadata with exiftool from a list of images (see csv-file EXPORT) and then modified te the data added some tags to import them (see csv-file IMPORT)

you can find the export and the import csv here: https://we.tl/t-FQjvcfHgy8



I tried to import the new csv with this command line:
exiftool -csv="U:\2_11_CTMAE\08_MUS\03_Taken\02_Collectie\03_Digitale_strategie\HighRes_beelden_moederbestanden\JM\HugoMaertens\JM_HugoMaertens_TIF_IMPORT.csv" -overwrite_original "U:\2_11_CTMAE\08_MUS\03_Taken\02_Collectie\03_Digitale_strategie\HighRes_beelden_moederbestanden\JM\HugoMaertens"



I didn't change anything in the field Sourcefile, but when I want to import I got everytime this:

Invalid tag name and also No SourceFile "..." in imported CSV database
1 directories scanned
0 image files read


does anyone has an idea what the problem can be?

thanks in advance!

You need to use commas as separators, not semicolons.

Sorry I added the wrong attachment, here is a new downloadlink: https://we.tl/t-Wod4rYk9rt

also with this file I have the same problem. I tested also to import the original file again (just to test it) and I got the same failure..

greetings;

I downloaded your files, created the same directory path, and had no problems with the command

Code Select Expand

Are you sure you didn't use the semicolon separated file instead of the CSV file? Because if I use the semicolon separated file, that is where I get Invalid tag name and No SourceFile errors.
