EXIF tool with CMD and GUI not doing anything

Trying to use EXIF tool to change both black and white level on .DNGS in windows with both CMD and GUI.

The command I'm using in CMD is "exiftool -BlackLevel=0 <file_name or *>.dng"

I've tried various entries and in GUI I've entered "exiftool -BlackLevel=0" multiple times and nothing changes or updates.

It will allow me in GUI to manually change each file in the workspace though... not a solution for thousands of .dngs needing white and black levels changed.

Thx for any of your ideas/support/time

I'm not sure, but using the "ExifTool direct" feature, I think you would do this by entering "-blacklevel=0" for the command arguments (ie. don't put "exiftool" in the command)

...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 ($).
