Hi everyone,

when i read xmp tags from a jpg image the displayed xmp namespace changes.
Is there a rule how the tags change when reading?

exiftool -G1 -a -xmp:description  -xmp:location <file>

this leads to the following output, where the red part apparently has changed.
   [XMP-iptcCore]  Location                       : myLocation
   [XMP-dc]        Description                     : myDescription


Thanks for any clarification,

Ben

Hi Ben,

You have specified family 0 group names (general location) on the command line, but are showing the family 1 group names (specific location) with the -G1 option.  To be consistent, you could either specify family 1 group names in the command, or extract with -G0 instead of -G1.

...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 ($).
