Marco,
I use exiftool to both read and write metadata. The part that sets rating
looks like this:
$EXIFTOOL -m -fast -P -overwrite_original_in_place -Rating=$RATING  $TMP |
grep -v '1 image files updated'

Where
$EXIFTOOL is the path to exiftool
$RATING is the rating (usually 2)
$TMP is the JPEG file

The script itself has a lot of homemade characteristics, it has evolved
over the years and the programming is really not very nice :) I'll be happy
to send it to you tough, if the above example doesn't cover your needs.
Please let me know.


Regards
Anders
