What’s new in version 12.51

Updated on Nov 22 2022

Added a new Olympus LensType (thanks Herb)
Extract C2PA JUMBF metadata from PNG images and C2PA Salt values
Decode NikonSettings for Z9 firmware 3.0 (thanks Warren Hatch)
Decode additional camm metadata from Insta360 Pro2 MP4 videos
Improved Verbose output when writing Composite tags to add a "+" sign to indicate related tags that are being written
Enhanced -geotag option CSV format to support GPSImgDirection column
Fixed problem where -w+ option didn't work in Windows if there were Unicode characters in the path name
Fixed problem where only the last image of the sequence was extracted (multiple times) when using -ee2 to extract embedded images from FLIR SEQ files
Fixed issue where GPS reference directions may be unknowingly written when using ExifTool 12.44 or later to write GPSLatitude or GPSLongitude without specifying a group name. The fix was to Avoid writing the Composite tags unless the Composite group is specified explicitly
Fixed -geotag to write orientation and track tags even if some tags in the category were missing
Fixed inconsistency in selecting which tag to output with the -json option when multiple tags with the same JSON key exist and the -TAG# feature is used to disable print conversion
Fixed problem writing QuickTime:PlayListID
Fixed problem writing QuickTime tags when specifying tag ID (ie. family 7 group) as well as a language code

Version: 12.27

If someone would write a GUI to integrate with this app, then it would be useful for more than the 1-in-a-1000 Mac users who are Terminal-savvy.

12.00

Version: 12.00

After installation, the app is untraceable and therefore not usable! I've tried several times, but without any results!

10.65

Version: 10.65

Why is Macupdate pointing to a compressed tarball of source files as the download when the developer provides a Mac install pkg in a dmg image file? To wit: https://sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ExifTool-10.65.dmg
