Batch or Python-Script for XMP-Informations
« on: 2017-02-07 09:02:45 »
Hello.
If I want to put some XMP-Informations to some files, I use exiftool, because one Button-Click is quicker then Open the Meta-Editor, load a specific Meta-File ...
But with Exiftool I don't know how to put the Database-informations of thumbs like Keywords or Annotations into XMP-Fields.

So is there a possibility to open by a batch-File a specific Meta-File that changes the XMP-Informations of images include Keywords and Annotations?

Maybe a phyton-Script?

Thanks

Using ExifTool with thumbs look here:

Well, if there is a way to do that, I don't think that it hasn't been documented.

In the past, a programmer at Cerious explained how you can run a Python scrypt in ThumbsPlus (or rather, that was part of a different explanation). See here: http://forums.cerious.com/forum/index.php?id=484

Maybe you can put on your hackers hat, and study the .py files in the \python subfolder to see if any of those scripts deal with XMP manipulation.
