I am trying to import metadata and use the XMP Label tag.  Based on what Ive read I should be able to import using..
exiftool -XMP-xmp:Label="1234" filename.jpg
but I get

Ignored superfluous tag name or invalid option: -XMP-xmp:Label
I've tried -xmp:Label, -Label

Suggestions?

Hi Pierre,

Your command works for me.  What version of exiftool are you using?  And on what system?

...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 ($).

Hi Pierre,

Odd.  Either your exiftool is corrupted somehow (but I have never seen a corrupted installation that didn't give a syntax error), or your command contains funny Unicode characters that look normal.  Make sure you type in the command (don't cut and paste), and if this doesn't work, uninstall exiftool then try again.
