exifcommand processor - warning

[ben]

Hi everyone,

i've got some trouble to read metadata of some images via the exif command processor.
Following is a simple example to read the creation date.

1) displaying the date via the metadata panel works as expected.
     {File.MD.XMP::photoshop\DateCreated\DateCreated\0}
      Date Subject Created   2007:09:28 04:49:28

2) exif command processor -> gives a warning and doesnt read the tag
  command:
     -G1
     -xmp-dc:Description
     -a
     {Files}
  output:
     Warning: [minor] Overlapping MakerNotes values - <file>
     Warning: [minor] Possibly incorrect maker notes offsets (fix by 3842?) - <file>


Does anyone know how to fix this?
I already tried "force update"

Seems the maker notes in your file are corrupted or unsupported by ExfiTool.
You did not mention the file format you use or the camera but I think this is a question which is better asked on the ExifTool user forum: http://u88.n24.queensu.ca/exiftool/forum/

Maybe provide a sample file for Phil to look at.

The -v option(s) (-verbose) also may shed some more light on this,

These are all images of a specific camera of a friend of mine (quite old one).

Does this help?
Otherwise i will ask in the exiftool forum

Have a nice sunday.

Best ask in the ET forum.
Maybe the old camera messed up the maker notes, or ET does not recognize the format.
