Trying to moves files to a dir, but "no writable tags"

[jomk]

exiftool -P -overwrite_original_in_place -m -r -ext cr2 -ext jpeg -ext jpg -directory^<d:\MPtemp d:\testX >line2o.txt

Guys - any ideas why this is returning "No writable tags set from d:/testX/2010/2010-08-10 EMK summer2010/EMK summer2010 048.JPG" sort of error?

Trying to move all files into a new, temp directory called MPtemp, before doing some further processing. Nothing moves.

Is it the overwrite_original that is causing the problem?

Thanks, J

The ExifTool "<" operator is for copying from one tag to another.  To assign a simple value, use "=" instead.

i had just figured that out - thanks Phil.
