NAME

       tracker-writeback - Used to write metadata set in Tracker back to 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.
