Introduction
Edna modifies and updates image and movie meta data. It provides similar functionlity as Change Meta Data but in contrast to CMD it is a standalone application, and not an Automator action and it also provides advanced features, like location and keyword mappings.With location mappings, location data can be automatically filled. You create tables that maps location to cities, cities to states, states to countries and countries to country code. Edna will use this table to set all the location data, if an appropriate entry has been found.
Keyword mappings are similar. They allow you to modify the keywords depending on the existence of other keywords. With this. you can simply correct mispelled keywords or entries that are simply variations of the same topic.
With Edna, you can modify the description, location and contact information of your image and video files. There is no need to use another tool for video files!
