Harlequin Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 What it does: Renames media files (jpg, jpeg, bmp, mpg, mpeg, png, gif, tif, tiff, avi, flc) based on their date, so in the directories, they will show up in order, and not duplicate names, etc. It Looks first at the standard Digital EXIF data, and uses that for the file name. If that is absent, then it looks to the file creation date. If that is absent, it will give the file a date & time of all "0"'s (0000-00-00_###, etc.) Files are all appended with a 3 digit number, so files with the same date (& time) would be named, for example: YYYY-MM-DD_HH_MM_SS_###.ext 2008-12-07_14-22-55_001.jpg, 2008-12-07_14-22-55_002.jpg,...2008-12-07_14-22-55_999.jpg OR: YYYY-MM-DD_###.ext 2008-12-07_001.jpg, 2008-12-07_002.jpg,...2008-12-07_999.jpg It DOES NOT check across directories, so in 2 directories, files can end up with the same name, but within the SAME directory they can NOT.ExifTool.au3 But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. - U.S. Declaration of Independence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
