A chronological documentation test project, nothing serious, really!
Sometimes I experience that a image files date/time on the file system differ from the image metadata/EXIF info. I use this command to extract the date information available in the file $ exiftool -time:all -a -G0:1 -s filename.jpg The output from the command can be like [File:System] FileModifyDate : 2016:06:08 14:40:24+02:00 [File:System] FileAccessDate : 2016:09:01 […]
This is my short script to rotate and rename image files accoring to date captured based on their EXIF info. You need jhead and exiv2 to run this. These two programs are also available in Windows and only require you to make small changes to work there as well. #!/bin/bash -x echo Rotating JPEG file(s) […]
This is a short post about how to duplicate or copy the EXIF information from one file to another using exiftool. The command comes handy when you have one image with EXIF information and you would like another image to have the exact EXIF information. exiftool -TagsFromFile CopyFromFile.NEF ToFile.JPG This works in both Windows and […]
This is a little script I’ve written to correct all my image files since the EXIF timestamp information is one hour out of sync. The filenames have been renamed to comply to the EXIF information and has to be renamed again because of the one hour scew. The filename can look something like this 20080102-1201_DSC_0910.JPG […]
This rename trick can be run in Windows, Linux and even Mac since the commandline program I’m going to use, exiv2, is available in all three platforms. Rename all image files in current folder to the format YYYYMMDDHHMM_Filename.EXT This has been tested on my Nikon D80 JPEG and NEF image files. Linux exiv2 -r’%Y%m%d-%H%M_:basename:’ rename […]
