This is much more efficient than launching a separate
Single instance needs to be launched and can be reused for many Since exiftool is run in batch mode, only a Program, including methods to extract meta-information from one or Tool in batch mode and features methods to send commands to that The library provides the class exiftool.ExifTool that runs the command-line Phil Harvey’s ExifTool command-line application. So it certainly seems like there must be something in the current metadata other than Rotation.PyExifTool is a Python library to communicate with an instance of However, while both VLC and the video transcoder I'm using work with the iPhone file upside down, both Adobe Premiere Pro CC and the QuickTime player work with the file right side up. So it's looking like it's not possible to edit the relevant metadata here. Unfortunately, when I attempted to update MatrixStructure (also displayed as "Matrix Structure") via Exiftool it failed as well with this message - "Warning: Sorry, MatrixStructure is not writable." Is there something fundamentally different with video metadata? Could this be a permissions issue? Is my execute statement incorrect? Is there perhaps a better approach?Īccording to the Exiftool website again at, I found that the Rotation field cannot be edited:ĭerived From: QuickTime:MatrixStructure, QuickTime:HandlerType So I'm executing "exiftool -Rotation=0 " but the result I'm getting is: I've got a video that is upside down according to the iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1) it was shot with - the rotation value is 180 instead of 0. However, I'm now trying to apply to same logic to video metadata (MOV wrapped H.264) but am not having any success. įollowing Phil's examples, I've had no problem updating existing metadata fields of JPGs. Phil Harvey has provided some excellent examples for using Exiftool to write photo metadata at.
