Hi,

Are there any chances that QXP format will be supported by ExifTool?

Currently when I'm trying to get some metadata from QXP file, ExifTool is returning error 'Unknown file type'.

I'm using ExifTool version 9.32.

Best regards,
Maciej

Hi Maciej,

I did some googling and it I can't find a public format specification for this type of file.  Plus, as a general rule ExifTool doesn't support software-specific file formats.  There are just too many of them out there.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).
