Commandline tool to set msspecific "rating" tag in jpeg

Question

I want to create a windows batchfile to set tags of jpeg-files to the contents of a database. i am using ExifTool-6.93 for this. this works perfect setting "keywords". Unfortunatly exiftool cannot write the ms-windows specific "rating" tag.

this works perfectly (read keywords and rating, write keywords)

ExifTool.exe -keywords -rating test.jpg
ExifTool.exe -keywords=testTag test.jpg

this does not work because ExifTool cannot write rating

ExifTool.exe -rating=2 test.jpg

do you know any ms commandline tool that can set the rating-tag?

Answer 1

The current version of ExifTool will write this tag. The version you are using is 6 years old.
