Type declaration

  • Readonly ignoreMinorErrors: boolean

    Should we ignore minor errors when reading metadata?

    This defaults to true, as ExifTool can be quite chatty.

  • Readonly useMWG: boolean

    Should ExifTool use MWG (Metadata Working Group) composite tags for reading and writing tags?

    ExifTool recommends this to be set to true. This defaults to false to maintain consistency with prior versions.

    Note that this can result in many tag value differences from ExifTool.read, and makes ExifTool.write write to "synonymous" MWG tags automatically.
