Nice and simple!

Tips for improvement: 

- autodetect input type

- set output file time according to input one

-  for JPG new option for "quality"

- remove Sleep(10) from FOR/NEXT loop

Note: There is freeware IrfanView tool for batch image conversions

Look at FileGetTime() and FileSetTime()

Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant!!!

Okay Now I understand... I have put the same date and time as the originals ones...

Okay so... looks easy to do !!!

But why is the reason of doing that ???

I was locking for some program like that, I need to learn about the structure of of all those format.

I hope if it is possible also for videos & sound format wmv avi mpeg... etc.

Awesome script, I'm gonna us it the next time I unload my camera to the computer and don't feel like manually reducing 200 images to send to friends.

On a side-tangent though, does anyone know of a script that would allow someone to select a folder of images and randomize the names of all files within, without changing the files? It's probably easily done, just a way to rename mass files, only randomly to some degree, but the problem is I suck at coding.

Thanks anyway for the script.

Let's not take over this thread, but I can work on that for ya when I get home. When it's done, I'll start a new thread as to not screw up this one.

Hi Cramaboule

Just wanted to say thank you for a piece of code I found in your excellent example. It’s the part about setting gdi+ jpg encoder quality. I've modified the variable names to be analogous to the help file and reproduced it below.

; Set up parameters for 90% JPEG quality
$JPGQuality=90
$tData = DllStructCreate("int Quality")
DllStructSetData($tData, "Quality", $JPGQuality)
$tParams = _GDIPlus_ParamInit(1)
_GDIPlus_ParamAdd($tParams, $GDIP_EPGQUALITY, 1, $GDIP_EPTLONG, DllStructGetPtr($tData))

The AutoIt help file is brilliant and I managed to build almost my entire script just using the help. The problem was I didn’t have a clue how to modify the “90 degree rotation” example to “JPG Quality”.

Considering how low the default jpg quality is – your example should be used by everybody who needs to save a jpg. I hope the developers will consider using your example in the help file.

QED

Handy-dandy script here, great job!

The only problem I ran into was that it didn't seem to retain transparency in PNGs.

Beyond that, hat's off!

@All,

Thanks a lot !
