exiv2 --Modify "set Xmp.dc.creator library" myfile.jp2

exiv2 -px myfile.jp2 

The console shows nothing.

I get the same result when I try with the C++ api as well.

This is not a problem for tiff files nor is a problem with Exif metadata. I can't speak to other file formats because I only work with jp2 and tiff files.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS and version: macOS 13.6
  • Exiv2 version and source: 0.28.1 from homebrew and from source
  • Compiler and version: Apple clang version 15.0.0
  • Compilation mode and/or compiler flags: cmake defaults

The last version that I can confirm this working is v0.27.6.

Can anybody else confirm this?

Think I might have found why. Can you please test #2890?

@kmilos this looks like it fixes it.

After updating to 0.28 I got a lot of errors with image processing on jp2 files and I thought I was taking crazy pills.

Nice job on getting this fixed.

Thanks for catching this and testing!

@kmilos Of course! Exiv2 is one the greatest tool/friend to digital archivists. It's faster and more robust than any other alternative out there.
