creating mie in batch

It's easy with single file:

exiftool -tagsfromfile apple.jpg -exif:all apple.jpg.mie

Now, what I'm trying to do (for last two hours, grrr), is something like this:

exiftool -tagsfromfile apple.jpg boat.jpg tree.cr2 -exif:all %f.mie

-to get:

apple.jpg.mie

boat.jpg.mie

tree.cr2.mie

Don't need to tell you, that above exiftool line doesn't do the job (and I've tried many other combinations). And it seems so trivial... I'm on Windows (if that matter).

An the solution is?

Greetings,

Bogdan

Hi Bogdan,

There are different ways to handle this.  Here is one:

Code:

exiftool -o %f.%e.mie -exif:all apple.jpg boat.jpg tree.cr2

I think your problems may have been due to a bug I discovered
while trying out various commands like this.  The following two
commands should also achieve the same effect as the above
command, but due to this bug they won't create a MIE file as
expected:

Code:

exiftool -tagsfromfile %f -exif:all apple.jpg.mie boat.jpg.mie tree.cr2.mie

 exiftool -tagsfromfile @ -exif:all -srcfile %f.%e.mie apple.jpg boat.jpg tree.cr2

This will be fixed in the next release, and exiftool 7.10 will work
with all of these commands.

I apologize for any inconvenience this caused.
