I write with a bash script the tags like ... -EXIF:FileSource="$METASOURCE" -XMP:FileSource="$METASOURCE" ... . I have already seen a value in -XMP:FileSource, but I can't see it again, although I use -a, when i query the tags. Which other values than 3 could be used, e.g. for a filmscan or a paperscan.

Re: -XMP:FileSource

If you write both FileSource tags, you should be able to read them both back. Try it from the command line and use the -v2 option to see what is written. If both were written, you should see both when you read the file with the -a option.

The only value specified by the EXIF spec is 3 (Digital Camera), but I have found other references that use 1 (Film Scanner) and 2 (Reflection Print Scanner). But I just noticed that I added the values of 1 and 2 to the EXIF FileSource tag, but not the XMP. I will fix this.
