EXIF meta data

[gbiorczyk]

Hi @kornelski,

First of all thank you for the great job you are doing. I am full of admiration for what you do!

My question concerns EXIF data saved in JPEG and PNG files. For example, camera settings or location, which are saved in EXIF data. After converting these files to AVIF format, this data is not available.

Can I somehow configure your library to preserve EXIF data or are you planning to add the ability to preserve EXIF data in the library as an additional option?

Currently there's no support for embedding metadata.

I've heard exiftool supports HEIF/AVIF now, so maybe you could copy it that way.

@kornelski Thank you for your answer! Do you have plans to add support for EXIF data in the near future?
