Hi guys,

I wonder if there is a way to write a matadata into webp files in bulk? Any suggestions are welcome.

Many thanks,

Alex

Okay, that's probably going to require a complex script for PS then.

XnView and IrfanView can handle batch processing of such stuff easily. It's always useful to have such tools handy, especially since they are basically free.

I have thousands of webp files and they all should contain a different metadata which I have into a csv file. Is that possible with XnView or IrfanView? Currently the webp image has no info when I open it with PS. Please see the screenshot attached. Thanks

@Stephen Marsh thanks for the mention. Both the keyword and metadata scripts are able to put metadata into WEBP files, but I didn't have WEBP in the list of valid Photoshop extensions. I've added it to both scripts, and now it works, best I can tell. See what results you get.

@AlexanderNik this script should do what you want, now that I've added WEBP to the extensions:

See if that works.

Tested in 2021, and no dice... Works fine in 2022, so I'm presuming that the native WebP support is required?

Thanks for updating the scripts!
