physical files.
SYNOPSIS
tracker-writeback [
OPTION...]
DESCRIPTION
tracker-writeback
is not supposed to be run by the user since it is started by
its .desktop file when the user logs in. It can also be started
manually of course for debugging purposes. You can not run more than
one instance of this at the same time.
tracker-writeback
writes metadata from the Tracker database back into files only.
Currently support is limited to XMP metadata (which covers PNG, JPEG,
TIFF, MP4 and 3GPP formats), play lists (which covers MPEGURL, SCPLS
and IRIVER formats) and taglib supported mime types (which covers MP3,
MP4, OGG, WAV, FLAC and some Windows media formats).
Data is only written back if write-back is enabled in the
tracker-miner-fs configuration.
