Write person information to XMP sidecar?

Post by Mimir »

Hi,

I am using GraphicsConverter 11 in the latest App Store version.

Currently I am experimenting with the face detecting feature and so far like it a lot! But I am wondering if it is possible to write the person information to a XMP sidecar file instead of the jpg image itself.

There are mainly two reasons for that:
1. I have several 100 GB of images on my disk. Changing the images itself would result in TimeMachine to back them up all again, and that for every change.

2. I use md5 checksums to check the integrity of my stored files, when changing the images I would have to check the checksum before changing the file and then calculate new ones after that.

Thanks for your help!

A merry Christmas and a happy new year to all of you!!

Hi Mimir,

sorry, that is currently only supported for PhotoRAW files.
