Hi,

I'm trying to find the correct flag that would allow me to insert a new value to the metadata but without replacing the existing. For example:

Current File values:
Keywords: soccer lesson, tennis lesson

exiftool -Keywords="running lessons" fille.pjg
New File values:
Keywords: soccer lesson, tennis lesson, running lessons

Thanks!

Are you using the command line or are you using the Perl API?

On the command line, adding to keywords would be covered by FAQ #17 as that is a list type tag.

If the Perl API, someone else will be along to answer that.
* Did you read FAQ #3 and use the command listed there?
* Please use the Code button for exiftool code/output.
 
* Please include your OS, Exiftool version, and type of file you're processing (MP4, JPG, etc).
