ExifTool this tool is not an internal serial number empty this information view

[yandazhuang]

It looks like a powerful tool.The landlord, persist in doing more than ten years, software optimization is also very good, but also solved a lot of people have this need of difficulties, the spirit of the landlord is admirable, spirit can be praised!
I spent a long time on this software, but I still couldn't get the hang of it. Here are a few questions I would like to ask you:
1. WINDOWS could not call Exiftool software in DOS terminal software. I tried many times and studied for more than a month, but still failed to solve the problem.
1, I am a designer, often take a lot of pictures of pure engineering design, to join the camera parameters, hoping to Exiftool tool to add camera with camera parameters, hope there are two solutions: (1), import the other camera parameters of real photos, pictures of resolution and the size of the file these two aspects is not imported, or the system automatically skip;(2) I hope to have original image reconstruction function. For example, the system software comes with parameters of various brands of cameras and automatically reconstructs photos of various designs, so that the parameters can be written into the design photos and the parameter data of pure design photo cameras can be written to make the design photos become shooting photos.These two kinds of methods, our software has, can achieve!
3, I found that I can't find it, we this software at the time of view camera parameter information, there is no internal serial number, when I do a pure design artwork from the structure, the platform is to consider the internal serial number, so a lot of time is failure will be submitted to (please see the attachment, there is some that other software also do have this information in the photos), I didn't find, is our software doesn't see this information, please the original poster guidance, advice

Your english translation is very funny.  I expect my response will be funny for you when translated to Chinese...

1. WINDOWS could not call Exiftool software in DOS terminal software. I tried many times and studied for more than a month, but still failed to solve the problem.

I can't help without more information.  Were there any error messages?  Did you follow the Windows install instructions?

Was there a question here?

The InternalSerialNumber is in the Canon maker notes.  But I don't understand what you are asking.

The InternalSerialNumber is in the Canon maker notes.  But I don't understand what you are asking.

There's a huge translation problem here, but the subject of the post translates (according to google)
"ExifTool is a tool that does not have an internal serial number to view this information, please!"

That seems to me that it might be a question about if exiftool has a Digital Signature for the install.

Edit: Didn't notice that the subject had been edited since I first saw it last night.  I was referring to the original Chinese(?) that the subject original was posted with.

Thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to reply to my message. Here, thank you very much, but I still want to ask you to solve my problem. I have been puzzled for two months, and it is very painful.Yes, I have an editor, I typed Chinese, but heart you can not understand, I use translation software, translation, my problem is actually three, first, how to operate in the Windows terminal, I see our forum posts, you use the tutorial have seen, or not operation.
Second, how to use exifTool to add camera parameters to the designed art pictures to turn them into pictures taken by the camera and what code to use.
Third, I found that the internal serial number of the camera was not in the exiftool tool. This view item is included in many software I have seen, and the photo itself also has this parameter. May I ask why this happens?
I put it this way, do you understand?

[StarGeek]

how to operate in the Windows terminal, I see our forum posts, you use the tutorial have seen, or not operation.

What part are you having problems with?
1) have you downloaed exiftool from the Main Exiftool Page
2) Have you renamed the file from exiftool(-k).exe -> exiftool.exe
3) Have you moved the program to a directory that is part of the system PATH environmental variable such C:\WINDOWS
Alternativly, you could try Oliver Betz's alternative exiftool which includes an install program

Second, how to use exifTool to add camera parameters to the designed art pictures to turn them into pictures taken by the camera and what code to use.

If you mean to copy metadata so it can be more like an image taken from a camera, then you would have to do some trial and error, as we don't know what your requirements are for it to be a camera picture. 

If you mean to convert the image data itself, then exiftool cannot do that as it only works with metadata, not the actual image data.

Third, I found that the internal serial number of the camera was not in the exiftool tool. This view item is included in many software I have seen, and the photo itself also has this parameter. May I ask why this happens?

We would have to have an example picture to take a look at but this might be FAQ #3 as there are probably duplicate tags called SerialNumber and exiftool will only show you one of them if you don't use the -a (duplicates) option.

It seems that you have completely understood what I want to express. It must have taken you not a lot of time and thought to figure it out. Thank you, Master, for your hard work.
As you say, I can only copy pictures of all the data (except for the resolution of the image, and image size,), for example: I want to copy the design picture A and picture B, A and B in the same folder named work, need to take photographs of all the parameters (remove resolution, image size two don't copy, other all replication) copy image to design A, what should I write code: please guide, thank you!Complete code should be how to write, please guide, thank you.

[StarGeek]

Try
exiftool -TagsFromFile /path/to/SourceFile/ -all:all -MakersNotes -ColorSpaceTags /path/to/DestFile/

That will copy all the tags exiftool will normally copy plus the MakerNotes tags (the Canon tags in your attached image) as well as any color related information such as ICC Profiles.

[yandazhuang]

I may be too stupid, or do not understand our software, sorry for the trouble brought to you, please forgive my ignorance.
I copied your code in, and there was this hint, I don't know why?Please indicate, thank you, sincerely, sincerely thank you.


Here is the error message, it has been copied, please check,

You must replace /path/to/DestFile/ with the path to the source file and /path/to/DestFile/ with the path to the destination file.  I can't fill these for you because I don't know the names of your files.

Hello, very sorry, because of my ignorance, small white, to disturb you again, I tried many times, always can appear the error message, I want to broken head, really can't think of the reason, he call to bother you again, kiss, I my integrity, and good "folder and file name, the complete code, you see, is where I went wrong, please guide, thank you,

[StarGeek]

You're adding a lot of extra characters and spaces.  If you're unfamiliar with CMD take some time and look for some tutorials in your native language.

exiftool -TagsFromFile C:\Users\yandazhuang\Desktop\exiftool-12.04\A.jpg -all：all -MakersNotes -ColorSpaceTags C:\Users\yandazhuang\Desktop\exiftool-12.04\B.jpg

[yandazhuang]

I changed a set of codes, but still, I wanted to import the pictures taken by Canon SLR into the pictures of my art design, but it was not successful, I was confused



C:\Users\yandazhuang\Desktop\exiftool-12.04>exiftool -TagsFromfile /C:\Users\yandazhuang\Desktop\exiftool-12.04/B.jpg -all:all>all:all  C:\Users\yandazhuang\Desktop\exiftool-12.04/A.jpg

Why do you keep adding extra slashes to the command?

Look at the last command I listed.  That is the format you need to use.

[yandazhuang]

Trouble master, answer again and again, I like small white and childish problem, presumably, let you really have no resistance to, really want to scold me a meal, yandazhuang Sir, why do you this stupid, ha ha, I really want to learn hard, I was the first time contact with these things, you let me with my "CMD" I also watching, as I don't want you so good, but I'm crazy want to understand you, more want me to do things, success, bother you, very kind of you.Thank you very much!!
The code is executed successfully, however, the camera parameters of the picture is not written, or empty.I have uploaded the attachment, you can have a look.

Can you post the output of this command for A.jpg and B.jpg?:

exiftool -a -G1 -s A.jpg B.jpg
